What can I say, but what a year! It's been 365 days, well not quite yet, of madness. I feel as though I've been caught in some sort of stampede of wild crazy horses. I'm exhausted.
It's been a year of trials, of major tests. The universe has challenged us like never before with an avalanche of emotions and trials. I for one had to do some major soul searching, I've been humbled beyond belief; and in the process I've grown much.
I've had to let go of so much, strip down to the bare essentials. I traveled back in time and revisited a place that I longed to be at, and realized that I could never relive the past. As much as I wanted to redo what had been done, as much as I tried to reconnect to what was, I realized that my life had changed. I was a new version of me living in a different place and time from what was.
I think we all reach a point in our lives when we look back and wonder, "what if"? Not all take a leap back to try and get an answer. I did. In doing so, I discovered that there is no "what if" because the choices made were the ones that needed to be made. The path was set and the journey inevitable. I am where I am because it's where I need to be, now.
It was a journey worth making and essential. Questions were answered, friendships solidified, loose ends tied or completely severed. I came to terms with my life "as is". I've embraced where I am with all my heart and came one step closer to me.
Sometimes, we need take these journeys. Revisit ourselves at a different point in life and face the questions that we once turned from. Most importantly, we must come to be at peace with who we were, and embrace who we are. It is not an easy journey, it never is. However, it is a must.
I survived the wild stampede of the Year of the Horse. Although, emotionally exhausted, I know that living for the moment is all that we were meant to do.
Cheers to 2014 and looking forward to a fabulous 2015!
