Peace

So... I feel like there should be banners or sirens or big fanfare. And the fact that there's not is actually a really good thing. Saturday marks eight years since I got engaged. Sunday marks seven years since I got married. And in a few short weeks, I'll have been divorced for two. This the part where I start in on what an incredible journey it's been. And it has. The past two years I have learned more about life and myself than the previous 26+ combined. But this is the thing. This whole week I've been dwelling on things and thinking about things- the past and such... And all I could think was, I really want this to be in the past and stop affecting the person I am today. I really want to just have a normal regular weekend and not have to worry about being upset because once upon a time this date was important.

Something I've noticed: It's one thing to say that I want change, but really the way that it comes about is by simply choosing different decisions when the time comes. Really, it's about making daily choices to live remarkably, rather than auditing life. Really, it's simply about deciding every day to be the change I want to see, not just in the world, but in my own personal life.

So... this is what I know. Who I am now could never have happened any other way than it did. I love the person I am now. The past is the past. I'm living for the present, the very best I can. And I'm happy.
