Lately.

Lately, life has been pretty good. Really good actually. I've felt loved and worthy and happy and fulfilled and inspired and needed and not so much like my life has been all uphill, which it's felt like for nearly a year. I feel like I can pause, enjoy, and take a breath.

I've been spending my days with positive people, writing in my journal, watching movies, playing with my puppies, taking bubble baths, allowing myself to cry when needed (because who doesn't love a good cry?) and simply enjoying life.

I've taken a step back from the internet. Because lately, I've needed to put more energy into the relationships I've built in my everyday life and those relationships have taken a front seat to social media -- and that's okay.

So much in my life is changing, and quickly. It can be overwhelming and scary and stressful, but most of the time... it's honestly refreshing and leaves a big smile on my face at the end of each day.
