"Singlehood" has been treating me well but it also invites tons
of questions and a lot of soul searching. I’m still not sure what about it
makes you go through a resolution type situation, questioning your answers and
reassessing your goals.
Inevitably I had my sit down and began reviewing every
decision I’ve ever made, slowly mapping out my travels to my current situation.
It has definitely been a journey and I don’t regret anything that I’ve done,
with that in mind I asked myself What Now?
I’ve done new things, met new people and traveled a little bit but what
happens after all of that? What opportunities do I have at my disposal? What
should be my next move? All great questions; sadly I was lacking answers.
For some time I felt like I needed to get out of Boston;
trying to run away from the life I had and in desperate need of a new one. I considered
going back home but I felt there was nothing there for me; I’m hungry for
adventure… a different life. NYC, California, DC, South America… the entire
world was on my list, anywhere seemed like a great idea. It wasn’t until I had
a conversation with my sister that I understood a key piece in all my anxiety
and desperation. My sister told me “If you don’t learn to heal, it doesn’t
matter where you go…you’ll take that emptiness with you”. That immediately blew
my mind and helped me regain strength and perspective; I am where I have to be!
Thank you Legnaly for helping me realize the importance of
healing and being happy where you are right now! It definitely opened the doors
to appreciation and happiness. I love you!
