just an update
A lot has happened in the past year.. one year ago today I was in the lowest place I can imagine, watching my marriage fail in a way I was unable to stop. In the year since then I have found I am better for having endured it, to have rised above it and made my life even better. The last 12 months have been full of almost conostant change of one form or another. At times it even felt like I was stuck on a roller coaster, and I had no idea if it would take me where I wanted to go. Thankfully this was only the beginning of my journey, and today it's a much smoother ride. In the last month I have taken a good amount of time reflecting on my past, to learn from it, and see where I could do better in the future in smilar situations. Starting my life over again was something I never would have imagined for me in my 30's, and may have even been scared of. But I have found it to be one of the most rewarding experiances of my life. I just don't want to make it a habit..

I had a major car accident a while ago, about 9 months to be exact. i lost 30-40 grand if i add it all up. Insurance wont pay (long story) But i got out of the car and said Fk it. Im alive and i didnt die. No one go hurt. I have learnt alot about myself in the last 9 months. I have focused on Relationships that are important and cut the crap out of my life! why waste it. you only have one! Good work on Moving on! There is an exciting world out there full of opportunities.
Go get them!

Life is nothing but circles of change; destruction and renewal.
It can be terrifying when things don't happen "as they should"; I am X age, so I need to be here, doing this.
All the best to you and your new beginning. I refer you to the "What to drink" post to celebrate.
