Enjoy the journey

So, I’ve launched my blog, and things are going well. I’ve been writing consistently, my social media pages are getting traffic, and I’ve made a little money. Life is good, but things aren’t perfect.

I honestly have nothing to complain about. In my opinion, complaining comes from a place of pride. When we complain, in a sense, we’re saying “this shouldn’t be happening to me”. We either feel like God isn’t good, or at the very least, he’s not able to use whatever we’re comploaning about to bless us somehow. Either way, I’m not complaining.

I do however, want to share my heart in hopes that someone would know they are not alone.... Change is hard. Growth is uncomfortable. Vulnerability is downright terrifying. Knowing that I’m putting myself out there in such an intimate way, has challenged everything about who I thought I was.

I am learning myself in ways I never have. I am much more afraid than I realized, yet much more brave than I give myself credit for. There are days when I absolutely feel like I’m in over my head. Then, there are days where I feel invinsible. Honestly, the overwhelming days have been more prevalent than the victorious ones, but I’m still striving.

When I started this blog, I committed to my truth. I refused to allow myself to pretend to be something I’m not. I am no expert. The only thing I’m sure of is the fact that I don’t know what I’m doing (insert nervous laugh). But... I’m here... I am writing. I am sharing my story. I am receiving the testimonies of those that my honesty has helped.

I truly thank God for this space I’m in. I only dreamed of this place. Now I’m living it. My life is literally spilling out on these pages. I pray that my transparency would be as healing to you as it has been to me. So today, let’s commit to taking life as it comes. Honey, enjoy the ride. Life is a journey, not a destination. Take it all in on your way to becoming everything you were meant to be 😘
