Changes

Cliffs in Ireland  

When you get to the edge of a cliff, you have to jump and trust you will find your wings.

My life has changed drastically in recent weeks, and while change can be sad, it is also for the better and making room for more positive growth.

Tim and I reached a very mutual decision to break up, shortly after I returned from my trip to Massachusetts to help my mother.

It was something we had both felt for awhile. We realized that we love and care about each other, but our paths have gone in different directions and that we aren’t what the other needs to be happy. He will be moving back to Massachusetts next weekend, he has really missed New England and his friends there.

I will be staying here, and in a few weeks, my best friend will be moving in with me, along with her 3-legged German Shepherd, Loki. Myra WonderPup adores him. She was moving down here anyway, and was going to stay here while she got on her feet. Now, she will move down as my roommate. It works well for both of us. Now, I just have to work on being a good roommate, and keeping the house a lot cleaner than I have been used to. Lol.

And, recently, I talked about when you hold a wish in your heart, that the universe listens and works to bring it about in her own time. I have recently reconnected with my first love, the boy I loved in college, and even though we took different paths for about a decade, he never really left my thoughts. I learned after reconnecting with him, that I never really left his thoughts either. I always felt that our journey wasn’t done, and almost immediately after he came back to my life, I realized he never really left my heart either. There is much brightness in front of me on that path.

There will be much more to say in coming weeks and months, as I leave one path and head down another. But while the path I’ve been on has been a good one, and it brought me many good lessons, I know the time has come to leap to a new path. I am certain it is going to be an amazing journey.
