Rally

Disappointment, we have all been there. I had a bout of it lately, and it jolted me right back to my need to ‘go with the flow’. It sure seems I am getting plenty of opportunity for that practice lately.

I will get there! I know in my heart of hearts if I could master this skill, life would improve a hundred-fold. I will say though this time, I rallied pretty quick. Progress!

Well, in all honesty, my disappointment was self-inflicted. My positive thinking just got the best of me. When an outcome changed, (theoretical mind you), I pivoted fast, but I realized just how far I had yet to go in this area.

I gathered my senses, my resources, my local bestie, and off we went for a night on the town. I even took a few pictures to commemorate the occasion! The band was amazing. I hadn’t danced in so long. We even met a lovely local couple, and just had so much fun.

All this to say, when you are thrown a curveball, even one of your own making, I hope you find your rally. I have learned wallow is the thief of joy.

Get up, get moving, and get on your way.

Thank you for staying with me as my publication evolves. I am not even sure what it is evolving into really, much like my life.

Almost two years ago, I began Ever After and I named it such because I wasn’t sure what my ‘ever after’ would look like. The irony, I still don’t. I think that is how it is supposed to be.

This journey is full of twists, and turns, ups, and downs. I am just grateful to be here for the ride.
