ABOUT
Hello There!
I’ve never started a blog before, but here it goes! (“Feel the fear and do it anyway” -self help book)
​
I don’t love writing (English was not my thing!), but I am passionate about my story and my growth, and journaling has become a great tool for me, so I thought I would take it to the internet!
​
Life is hard, and we are all just trying to do the best we can. Its nice to have a place of support and encouragement. I want this blog to be that place!
​
I want to share my story to inspire myself, and maybe even others! I’ve used the disappointing and hurtful things from my life to grow and make changes. I used to think that these things in my life made me broken and damaged, but now I see how they are the parts that make us beautiful.
​
My story: At 25 I was newly divorced. I can say that this made me feel damaged for a time being, until I saw and now know that I am not broken and damaged, I am more beautiful because of it.
I am able to have so much more compassion on those who are struggling in their marriage or going through a divorce themselves. I have so much more respect for those who keep marriages together. I’ve also learned so much about myself. All these things are beautiful! Not broken and damaged. So there!
​
I’ve tried to use my experiences as a reset into my adult life. Essentially starting over from where I thought I would be. Everything that has led me up to this moment has made me who I am today, the good and the bad! It’s difficult to regret your life choices when those choices have led to so much growth!
I’ve think I can say that I've gotten to a place where I like who I am, and I wouldn’t want to change the person I’ve become, although there’s always room to grow!
​
I have hope for what my future may bring and I want to use this platform to share what I have learned and what has helped me.
This blog is a mixture of whatever this blogger deems valuable at the time – I’m here for me and I hope you’re here for you :)
​
XOXO, Madi
