30

30 feels monumental for a number of reasons.

First, I always thought 30 was ‘old’ and now here I am.. back pains and all. A lot of shit has happened in my life that made me question if I’d ever see 30. A lot of shit has happened in my life that made me wonder what 30 would even be like. I’ve had a lot of friends and family not make it to 30 and didn’t know if i’d follow the same path.

I found a picture of baby xtina and cried knowing how proud she would be to know that we’re still here. I’d like to think she’d be proud of how much progress we’ve made and the life we’ve built. She’d be proud of the friends and relationships we have, the goals we’ve accomplished, and the shit we’ve let go of.

Life’s been one hell of a ride and if there’s anything i’ve learned, it’s life goes on. I’m ready to go into this new decade doing whatever brings me my peace.
