11.30.14 Fifteen actions that lead to today
Ever thought about the most recent choices you made and how you got where you were today. Well these are the choices I made that led to today.
Starting summer 2013 when my boyfriend dumped me...
1. I feel into a depression and lost my job
2. With no job and no direction I decide to join the NAVY. I went through all steps and signed an 8 year contract as Aviation Boatswain's Mates.
3. Spent the summer homeless on the streets as I was going into the NAVY in November and I collected unemployment.
4. Found out about one month before that my contract was null and void due to an arrest that happened that past February.
5. Found out my first love had cancer -- a situation in which we both believed we were each other soul mates.
6. Packed my suitcase and made arrangements to move back home to my parents in Michigan so I could be with him.
7. Met 2 people in the same month just before leaving. One was a guy trying to make it in the music scene who I spent Halloween with and played back-up dancer for. The second was a retired business man from Vancouver with a lot of life experience.
8. Found that my love back home did not need me, there was little room for me. Took the retired business man up on his offer at a life with him in his home.
9. Put the music scene guy in my back pocket and made the most of life with the business man.
10. Realized I wasn't able to love him. Felt as this was a choice due to the break up that happened almost a year ago.
11. Broke up and told him I had feeling for someone else -- but that my feelings were not important and minuscule.
12. Realized I was deceiving myself since day one and that I had fallen in "love" with this guy and never wanted to admit it or pursue it.
13. Had gotten kicked out again. Made a 360 at this point. Again back on the streets.
14. The business man reconsidered and took me back in so I could save my money and get out on my own. But this came with sacrifice.
15. Had to cut out the music scene guy. The guy who I have grown to adore. The guy who I am infatuated with. The guy who I "love."
