Have you ever had the feeling that sometimes keeping relationships are more work than what they are worth it? I’ve come to the conclusion that maybe it is time for me to “rethink” the people in my life including family. I never thought I would be that person — the person willing to walk away from her family — but the time has come to make even more changes.
I original started this blog to help out my father and to document the changes in life after college. No one ever tells you that sometimes no matter how hard you try sometimes life doesn’t go the way you thought. I thought doing what my mother asked of me was the right “course”, but I guess my mother never stopped to consider that people make the decisions on whether to keep others in their life. I’ve held on as long as I could but it is time to put myself first.
I know that this must sound like I’m ungrateful for the family I have but truth be told, we haven’t been a family since my mother passed. In fact, the more I try to hold us together the further apart we become. I have said before that I’m tired of being only called when someone needs something — I want to mean more to someone.
I’m ready to move on and become someone better, so I’m letting go of who I was and now looking to the future with hope and a new sense of happiness.
HAPPINESS IS HOMEMADE.
