Regret

I know it's frowned upon to have regrets but I have to admit that I have many of them. Not saying that I am ashamed of them or I haven't learned from them. I would love to be able to redo some things in my life. Change some decisions I've made. But since this is reality I know that I am unable to turn back time and rewrite my life so I am focused on what is in front of me. My regrets have helped me to learn from and grown from things I wish haven't done.

Marriage

It's tough....

Caged

I feel. Caged in. Like a bird with the door left open but still unable to fly. Is it my own insecurities? I am pretty sure. Underestimating my true essence, ignoring my future. What is it that keeps me from flying? Am I already flying and not aware that I am in mid flight.

Regret

Regret is a wasted emotion, you can never take back actions or words from the past…move forward and learn from them….

Casual Saturday

I have a life that I am content with. I don’t do much but everything I do is purposeful and well thought out. I may not go and shake my ass every weekend nor drink excessively but thats not me. I like staying in the house cleaning and cooking for my two men. Or just lounging reading a book. Does that make me dull? Politics excite me, a new exciting book excites me, my son makes me smile my husband makes me feel special. I find that I lose friends because I don’t enjoy going out or because Im too busy with my home-life but thats what’s important to me. Not passing judgement of any kind but just clearing my mind. I feel myself evolving. My life is so much more complex than it looks standing outside my door. If ever you could step in and take a tour you would be surprised…..

1/3rd a Lawyer.....

So, the grades are in. The summer has begun. Clerkship has started. 1L year is officially over. 




I have survived. I am happy. I am content. I did it. 


This year has been a whirlwind of stress and emotions but I conquered it. When I thought I couldn't do it, I proved that I could. 


I did not give up. I showed up and showed out. 


There aren't enough words to express who happy I am. 


Thank you to my husband Corey who is an amazing support system. Thank you to my mom who is my #1 supporter. Thank you to my son Jae for not chastising me for not being around as much :)


Thank you to Amy Brammell for being the best Twin Best Friend a girl can have. If I didn't have someone to share in this experience and allow me to lean on you at my low points, I may not have come out of this.
