2011: Summer of fun is coming to a close, M has started Kindergarten. She is involved in Soccer and itching to start Daisy scouts. Life is a changing. I’m so thankful for all my wonderful friends who truly helped me make this a summer of fun. I had a blast doing what I wanted to do, having fun even trying new things. Kickball league, kayaking , multiple bike races. I’m proud of myself for getting out there and being true to me. I needed to remind myself that I need to come first. I need to make myself happy before I worry about others. The only person in this world you can make happy is yourself. I’m mastering that. Over this summer I’ve slowly lost a few people that I really thought would be lifelong great friends. But, in the scheme of things custody rules apply to friends as much as anything. So I’m learning to let go and move on. Unfortunately, moving forward often means leaving others behind. Bittersweet. You can’t live in the past and you cannot hang on to people who won’t try for you. While I want to hold on to friendships past, people who aren’t willing to make an effort will be left behind. I’m grateful for the memories and the lessons learned. The company, the fun times. But, as we grow and change in our lives there are certain people who aren’t willing to do the same. So as I move forward in this new chapter of my life, I will truly miss the people I am leaving behind. But, I cannot wait to see what is yet to come. Oh the places I’ll go and the people I’ll meet. Another adventure is beginning.
