“Dual-actually”

So it’s coming up on that time of year when I have to take several steps back and focus on good things instead of bad things. It’s around this time that some major changes happen in my family life and it definitely didn’t help that it was mid-pandemic as well. Huge realities changed in quick succession and forever changed many lives. Seven to be exact.

While I know I can’t move backward I can reflect, look back at all the good moments and memories & be thankful for the positive things that were and are. Yes there is still some heartache, even two years later, however I can’t make that my focus going forward. So for now I make it my goal to continue forward with more understanding and more peace to show and give.

For now I’m happy enough and feel better here and there, doing my best each day to not regress backward and stay as hopeful as I can be day to day.
