2020:

Have you ever thought about what life would be like if COVID wasn’t around? I mean think about it? I have and this is what I came up with. I feel like I would have a job and working on paying off bills. I would be getting my daughter ready for college and taking care of the home. But in all honesty, I would have never taken the time to work on me. See I would be to busy doing other things for other people and not taking the time out to worry about myself. I never really did worry about myself until I’m really upset. This pandemic has made me take a step back and focus on my health and my mental health. I have exercised more than I use to and I feel so good. This has been something good for me. My marriage is healthier and better than before. My friendships are better and I understand boundaries more. Even though 2020 hasn’t been what I needed it to be it’s what I needed. I have seen so many people struggle and complain at the beginning of the year about being home. And now I’m seeing people rediscover life and love. I know that so many people are struggling right now and I get it. But you have to love yourself and be the best for yourself.
