Life is a journey…

I can see myself opening up to new things next year. It will have nothing to do with past circumstances but new beginnings. My new mantra that I have been claiming the past few months will take over my mind and soul for I am not going to let anything or anybody hold me down. You have to feel that way, and as I see it their is nothing is wrong with being selfish if they are for the right reasons. If changing things in your life is what you need to do then by all means do it. An individual should not let others get in the way of that. If you allow that then who are you allowing to control your life, yourself or other people. As the saying goes, “Do not let your circumstances define who you really are.” I try my best everyday to live by that because it is so true.

I finally took the leap despite taking out student loans to return to college and get my bachelor’s degree. With much serious thought of what my major would be after attending college off and on over the years decisions on what I want to do was one thing and then changed to something else. You know how that is but actually getting to the point where you know in your heart and mind that yes I finally believe that this is my calling and not what it used to be. So, with saying all of that I decided to get my bachelor degree in English, well Bachelor of Arts degree that is. With this English degree the career plans is to obtain a job in publishing or public relations. This will also give me a chance to work on freelance writing in hopes to do that full-time, so I can open up my own publishing company doing edits, newsletters, articles, press releases, self-publishing books and blogging. I’m finishing my college education online so all of my classes are taking on the internet with a university out of my home state. I am looking to complete all of this by September 2013, seems far away, but I know that date will be here soon. Wow, just thinking about all of this builds up more anticipation for what is to come.

So many things I am feeling positive about that through persistence it will all fall into place and I can be more at peace. The fall weather is here and I love it…also looking forward to celebrating another birthday this month. November is one of my favorite months of the year. Oh, by the way I love keeping it real for all Scorpios!!
