Hello June

-


It is the beginning of a new month, which means the end of another. As I sit here and think about the fact that it is June already, I start to reflect on last month. Then I think back to the beginning of the year. Not just thinking about what I learned in May, but what has January through May 2024 taught me?

We get to learn with each new day. It is up to us to recognize and absorb the lesson. We must see the signs we ask for, and act on them to achieve the things we prayed for. Sometimes we get distracted by the things we want and neglect the things we need. So I try to reflect on the past to help me improve my future. And as I think about the first 5 months of the year. I think about the list below.

What has January through May 2024 taught me??


  • My circle isn't always as supportive as I think it is.
  • There are people who aren't in my life on a daily basis that support me.
  • I sometimes ignore the signs then act surprised when the sh!t hits the fan.
  • I need to be more in-tuned with my intuition and don't brush off the signs as, "it was just a dream" because I am more focused on what I want than what I need.
  • My dreams tell me way more than I am able to process at this time.
  • Being near water is healing. 
  • Sometimes I make the wrong turn.
  • Even when I make the wrong turn, I can always get back on track.
  • There are feelings that are buried deep down that peek out once in a while.
  • Sometimes I want things that aren't meant for me.
  • I tend to overthink things.
  • I don't take enough risks.
  • (Maybe) I am too private to a fault.
  • Things aren't always as difficult as I think they are going to be.
  • People can share the same experiences and have different memories of how things transpired.
  • Unexpected things always happen.
  • People will lie to you to get what they want. (I've always know this, but received a reminder this year).
  • Some friendships don't last forever, and that's okay.
  • Sometimes you have to remove people from your life in order for you to be okay. 
  • Sometimes people re-enter your life at the perfect time (well, this was last year, but still impacting this year).
  • There are parts of life I thought I had figured out, but I don't.
  • I should be prepare for the worst.
  • I should enjoy the present and let the future unfold one day at a time.
  • Sometimes you just have to do what makes you feel good in the moment.
  • When it doesn't feel right, IT... IS... NOT... RIGHT!
As I enter June, I will take these with me. Here's to stumbling through life one trip at a time.

Open Letter To That One Ex

To, That One Ex First, thank you. Thank you for being a part of my journey. Now… In regards to the end of our relationship. I remember you asking me if there was someone else.  You told me you spoke to a couple people and they said there must be someone else. I guess for them, and maybe for you, they just couldn’t imagine ending a relationship unless there was a third party that stole their heart. It must seem impossible that anyone would prefer to be alone, rather than in an unhappy relationship. Well, the truth is… there was someone else. Yes, someone stole my heart from you. Only, it is not as you would imagine. However, I wasn’t the only one with someone else. You had someone else. The someone was your best friend. And the person who stole my heart from you was me. I remember you asking “is there someone else?” I wanted to say “yes, there it is. You know her very well.” You placed another woman before me, and that was something I would not stick around to deal...

I know a girl who laughed when she was sad She would cry and then pretend to be glad She lived a lie so you wouldn’t feel bad She’d close her eyes and imagine that… I know a girl who pretends to be someone she doesn’t want to be This girl lives the life she believes you want to see She does the things you think should be done by she She completes the tasks you want her to complete She is the girl you want her to be I know a girl who cried when she was alone And then you would call but she couldn’t answer the phone She couldn’t talk to you because you would know by her tone She couldn’t disappoint you so she’d pretend to be gone I know this girl who has low self esteem She doesn’t see herself as she should be seen She doesn’t believe she is worthy of things So I understand why she refuses to believe I know this girl who is the victim of dreams She hopes she can achieve the things she wants to achieve She lays out her plans and tries...

When they're different But they're still the same You've changed the process But the results won't change So you decide to change again And you realize YOU haven't changed So you start to analyze your life You grab a pen and begin to write You need to see where you've been wrong Understand what's really going on You make a few lists... The good. The bad. The ugly, One view of who you are... And one of who you want to be Then you develop a plan to make things right You outline...      develop a  timeline You decide it's time for a transformation This is when it begins...     and life changes copyright 2015
