It has been many years since my divorce. I feel as if I have been barely existing. Being a responsible single mother of two that works in health care just doesn't leave much energy or desire to take time for myself at the end of the day. My children are 10 and 9. Somewhere along the way with the day to day hustle, I have lost my way. I have lost myself. The sad thing is that if I don't take care of myself, who will? I think this is a common problem for most women. They get lost in raising their family. I don't want my entire identity to be about family.
So now, I am ready to turn over a new leaf. I am ready to reclaim the person I was/am. The fortunate thing is that I am a better person now than what I was prior to children. Reclaiming myself will be a process of adjustment not only for myself but the children and my family. Boundaries will be set. Limits will be placed.
My future is looking brighter. The possibilities are endless as they have always been. So here's to new beginnings...................
