I’ll begin with a cheers to 2021.

It may be summer but it’s never too late to celebrate a new beginning, right? After so long, I feel as if things have truly begun to come together in my life. Between taking the steps from obtaining my business license and thriving in my career, my dreams of success appear to finally be coming to fruition. My cheeks can’t stop beaming with excitement (shoutout to Midwest humidity for also taking a part) over all the good that has happened within the last two weeks.

My body has been on a strange autopilot mode. Strategizing throughout the day and studying programming late into the early morning. I have never been one that could multitask well, so the fact that I have been able to stay this focused throughout the day is incredible.

Hello, New Life. It me.

Not everything is perfect but I’m doing my best to take it all in day-by-day. The overwhelming anxiety that I normally experience during busy weeks seems to have disappeared. I’m not sued to this overall joyous feeling but I will embrace every moment of it for as long as possible. I feel like that’s all we really can do as humans in this day and age.

2020 and the start of 2021 has been a test of strength. We’re all the winners in this morbid sport. I cannot say if I have fully passed this imaginary test given all of the hurdles, but I can feel myself improving in so many ways.

Writing this is my own personal time stamp of progress.

You can spend so much of your time focused on the shadows that you forget you are the light.

I can’t recall where I read some rendition of that quote, but I truly believe it. I’m ready to make that light shine even brighter.

Cheers.
