Revealing Myself: 9490 Days Around The Sun

Happy Birthday to The Coolest Cat I Know & For All The Things Learned the Last 25 Years

Here I have arrived,
My 26th year around the sun.

And although I have lived a very short life compared to most, but I feel like I endured war on the battlefield of my trauma,

That my age only signifies my body,

And not the wisdom captured from the turbulence of life’s roller coaster.

As I enter my 26th year, I feel a sense of surreal calm and clarity, a feeling that has never before been available to me. Over the last 7 months, I have learned to finally cut ties with my past, to forgive myself for my mistakes, to let go of the fears that held me back from alignment, and to follow the call of my soul once and for all. I’ve been craving my entirety while actively neglecting my needs and rejecting my purpose. I’ve lived in repeated cycles, fell into relationships that abused and took from me, I had emptied out my own self worth in sacrifice for those who never loved me. I loved for all the wrong reasons, and made choices that neglected my mental health and emotional well-being, in a blind faith that it was all for love.
