Best decision I’ve ever made.
It's been a while since I posted or updated all of you guys on everything that's been going on in my life (if you're wondering read this) but that's only because IT HAS BEEN INSANE. Like nonstop. I've been going and going and going and going. But it's been so good. My house in Charlotte should be closing any day now, I'm currently almost done with my first week of school with the kids back, I've officially moved out of Charlotte (BIG SHOUT OUT to a really nice boy that I met - but that's all you're getting on that) and I'm so happy. These last few weeks have been the most draining ones I've ever experienced in my life. My new job is 45 mins away from my mom's house (where I'm living at the moment) and if you know anything about me, I'm not a morning person. Luckily I have planning right when I get to school so that I have time to really wake up before I start teaching. Despite the fact that right now I'm commuting 30 minutes longer than I used to, despite the fact that I'm living with my mom (don't get me wrong, she's great... but I've lived on my own for quite some time..) and despite the fact that I really miss my Charlotte people, I feel like this is the best decision I've ever made.
Have you ever had a moment in your life when you’re like “Can my life get any better than this?” That’s how I feel right now... (whaaaat! I know that's probably annoying to hear because I hate those people lol not really but you know) I want to like soak up every little bit of life that I can right now and that is definitely not how I always feel. I've gotten exactly what I wanted. I wanted to move to feel happier. I wanted to be closer to my family and some friends I haven't lived near in a while. I wanted change and I got it. My principal asked me recently how everything has been and all I could say was "It's wonderful, I'm so happy." It's crazy to think two months ago or so I made this decision to move with nothing holding me back. I was going to make it work however I had to and everything has fallen into place. As I wait on a few things to happen (house to close, find a new place to live, etc.) I don't want to forget how happy I am right now. I don't want to forget that feeling of "This is exactly what I've prayed for and wanted for some time." So here I am to tell you again, be brave. Make a change. Do it for you and for everyone around you. You’re responsible for your own happiness. If you're going to be unhappy, there's no one else to blame but yourself. And don't you worry I'm preaching to the choir right now. I know this feeling is fleeting and I'll probably hit some kind of low sooner or later but I don't want to forget this. I'm so grateful to be here and I want you to experience this too.
