I keep dancing on my own

I love life. I aspire to be a world renowned fridge-magnet poet. I like to read the stuff that's on bathroom stalls.. I like tea, strange personalities, wrist dancing and acoustic covers. I find little bits of inspiration in anything and everything, in anyone and everyone.

but you were my favourite

Quiet but I’m sure there is something here

I am noticing that as my life is about to settle I feel uncomfortable. Instead of at ease that things are wonderful. That I am happy. I always need change instead of sinking into my happiness. In the blessings I have.

I worry about my future and always think I need more. But I am loved and I am fulfilled.

Goodbye 2017, You will not be missed.

The year of heartbreak. Seriously. I got my heart broken more times in the last 12 months than I have in my 27+ years of living. This has to be quick because there are less than 4 hours left of 2017. Yes, I got my heart broken by someone that I still love. But I realize how much better I am without him. Dating. I dated a LOT. I learned EVEN more about myself through the heartbreak, ghosting, awkward conversations and unbearable first dates. I learned a lot about my self worth and a lot about what I need and want and the heart break was totally worth it. This truly was a year for me.

Friendship. This year I also lost someone I considered a close friend. She was selfish and made mistakes and so did we but she’s gone and when I think about it I’m just angry.

I lost myself a lot this year. I lost sight of what I wanted for myself with my career and what I wanted for my life. BUT it's come back in full force. I know what my priorities are, I know that I deserve complete happiness.

The people who've stayed in my life are the best humans in the universe. Seriously. I am so blessed beyond words. Beyond any expression. I'm so grateful for them and I'm so lucky I have beautiful, kind, wonderful, inspiring souls in my life.

WHAT A YEAR!

High Lights??

I met an amazing guy. Who knows how long it will last but for now, I am happy and I am grateful.

My best friends celebrated their love for each other and the celebrations were dance floors and singing my heart away.

I love myself enough to know when I need more and when I can do better.

My first LTO finished and I work my ass off for the LTO I'm in now. It's my dream job and I am so in love with my kids. They're hilarious.

I got to see sooooo many theatre shows. My love for theatre hasn't changed and I'm glad that I've gone (many me dates)

Next year, I hope that I continue to grow and love myself unconditionally. That I give myself more permission to try and fail. I will open my heart up just a little more. Vulnerability is tough. But I will try.

I hope to continue working at my beautiful little big school and that I will work hard my little ones.

I can't wait for DOMINICAN!

I can't wait for more of my best friends' adventures. Bachelorettes, Showers, Weddings.

I leave behind bitterness and try to focus on the good and all the blessings I have.

SO many opportunities ahead that I hope I'm brave enough to jump in!

SEE YOU 2017. It has been a slice.

Now to join my favourite people to ring in 2018.

“…the right people are timeless. The right people make you want to throw away the plans you originally had for one and follow them into the hazy, unknown future without a glance backwards. The right people don’t make you hmm and haw about whether or not you want to be with them; you just know. You know that any adventure you had originally planned out for your future isn’t going to be half as incredible as the adventures you could have by their side. That no matter what you thought you wanted before, this is better. Everything is better since they came along.”

125 days.

I want you in my life but can’t have you. It’s not fair that you still take up space in my thoughts and my favourite spots are memories of you and me. I don’t want to think about someone who no longer thinks about me.

There will be a time when you think your heart’s broken. It’s inevitable and it’s okay to cry But once the ocean has drained from your eyes Stand up, turn around and never look back Because one day, someone will look at you with a light in their eyes and an incessant fire in their heart and they’ll see the flawless being that you are and know that it’s your flaws that make you so. And there will be nights when thunder explodes in your head at 3am and you’ll wonder what you’re doing here, yet be satisfied in having no purpose and simply existing. To exist is a beautiful thing. Be content that you have a heart that pumps life through your veins and a mind that dreams infinite dreams and legs that will carry you wherever it is that this glorious heart and mind of yours desire. So don’t waste your life waiting for someday because someday will come and pass and you’ll blink and you’ll have missed it. Today is your day, today is your someday- it’s time to truly exist

Making the pledge to make make yourself a better person and improve on something is so valuable. It doesn’t have to be every day, but reminding yourself to grow can make a big difference (I am currently working on being friendlier, less fearful of failure, and more patient)!
