The Future is Becoming Clear

For the past few days, I’ve actually felt pretty great. I’ve been riding this mental high of positivity that stems from feeling like the focus adjustments I’ve been making are finally taking shape and blooming. The future is becoming clearer with each passing day.

I started my website, so now, all of my content lives in one place. That was a huge undertaking and I am really happy with how this site turned out. I’ve always loved old Hollywood, Film Noir and to me, life is pretty black and white. I don’t live my life in grey areas because that is where things get way too complicated for me to even try to understand or process. I’m very pleased with this effort.

Honestly, the past few weeks have been very rough for me. I’ve felt very overwhelmed by life, things around me and needed to put my time, attention and energy back where it belonged – in my own reflections of my life.

I can get sucked into other people’s opinions, ignorance, drama and spin my wheels in trying to help them out of it or lend my voice of thought where it isn’t welcome, appreciated nor warranted. I’ve decided that I don’t have the capacity for that anymore. “Angela Goes First” started out as a joke but serves as a reminder that I need to keep the focus on doing just that. When I feel like I’m not staying in my own lane, a simple look up above my desk serves as that reminder that I need from time to time.

So here I am – Happily living life simply and openly being me. I don’t know exactly what the future holds, but I do know where I’ve been, where I’m at right now and have that sense of peace of the direction I’m headed in.
