#metamorphme2017

December 18th, 2017 #Dear2017, These memes made me laugh. #Ilaughed not because they were humorous. I laughed at the irony of it all. I laughed because I felt like my growth would be like in the movies, lots of supportive people, champagne glasses toasting my success. It couldn't be further from the truth. It's been a bootcamp with the main mantra of #metamorphme2017. Morph me you did. I didn't emerge from this year without struggling. Struggling with my attraction to emotionally unavailable people, to learn how to forgive myself and others, to stop looking to others for validation, to push back from tables where love is no longer served and that not everyone can love you the way you want them to. I thought #metamorphme2017 would bring me love, understanding, a squad, an epiphany. It did. How ironic, #DanielleElizabeth

Dear 2017, You have challenged me on every level. When I dubbed this #Metamorphme2017, I had no idea how tumultuous, painful, difficult, and rewarding change could be. I have lost almost everything and surrendered a lot more. All of it for the hope that a new me, a new life, a new beautiful existence would emerge. Having faith that it's never too late, that I inwardly have what it takes and that the reveal would oh so worth it. 2017, you have taken me to the brink.
