DALLAS

Almost a year ago, to this day I was preparing to go to TX for more training for a new opportunity. I was excited, nervous, unsure but also incredibly happy. It felt good to be somewhere that I could have a fresh start. Little did I know, the opportunity would soon come to an end. I was beyond heart broken. I didn’t and still don’t understand why God would put me in that position, knowing what I had been through to get to that point. On top of that, I was dealing with a whole heap of other shit that had me hogged tied down with my anxiety on edge. One good thing that came from the month of October was an old friend. The week that I went to Dallas, was when he reached out. Ironically I didn’t think much about it. I thought he was hitting me up just to see how life has been. Now a year later, here we are in a relationship and going through life together. Ironic is the word to use for this situation. Never in a million years would I have thought that I’d briefly work for Southwest Airlines and find the love of my life all within a month. Lol. Despite all the bullshit 2020 has provided, (specifically COVID-19) it has been a good one. I’ve realized now more than ever that.... everything and everyone has a season. And sometimes, it takes us longer to get where we want. Life is definitely a journey & not necessarily a destination. I’m still not sure what I’m doing with my life, what my career path is, blah blah blah. In the immortal words of myself: all we can do is take things day by day... not exist, but to LIVE. When we harp or stress on the future too much... we’re not present in the moment. That’s a problem I’ve always had. I’m doing my best to take things as they come. We all know anxiety is my middle name.. lol. But I can truly give it a good effort to  continue to be the best version of myself one day at a time. We all should. I’m thankful for 2019... it taught me what I was made of. 2020 allowed me to be vulnerable & become more of myself. I can’t wait to go back to Dallas... this time for pleasure and not work.
