What. A. Year.

I knew I’d been gone for a long time but when I realised that my last post was at the very beginning of the year, I was shocked. I was like ‘Wait a minute…Wait a damn minute!’ I know I say it a lot, but time really does fly.

As I’ve been gone for so long you can imagine I have quite a few blog posts patiently sitting in my drafts but before I can post any of them, I felt I had to publish this one first.

I think I speak for many when I say, this year has been an even crazier year than the last. The year we all thought (hoped) Covid would end, the year we thought our lives would get back to normal. You see, in life things don’t always work out how we’d like them to.

My hiatus from blogging means you’ve missed out on so much that’s happened in my life – so much that I planned to share at the present time but didn’t. As I type, I contemplate just how much should be shared and how I’d prefer for this to be a rather short blog.

Well, where do I start? This year summed up has an amazing year for me – career wise. Securing a grad job with my dream company whilst finishing my final year at Uni and then being promoted within four months of joining, but it’s also been a year full of (not so happy) tears LOL. Being open means I can’t just share the highs – the lows are just as important. I found myself upset over the same two situations – one I could change and the other that was beyond my control. One thing about me – I hate crying and when/if I do, it’ll be a very short session. With that being said, I also think it’s good to have a cry here and there – gotta clean those eyes!

This last month has been the hardest on my mental health but also a very eye opening month. I’m always very optimistic about the New Year but 2022 just screams even more GROWTH and a whole lot of LOVE because I sure as hell deserve it.

May 2022 bring the love, peace, prosperity, health and happiness we so desperately deserve, need and want.

Goodbye 2021, Hello 2022!
