Happy new year, readers! I cannot believe that we’re already in the roaring ’20’s! We absolutely need to bring back flappers and the style! It was so unique and monumental. Anyway, this blog is going to be about turning over a new leaf.
Recently, I received a text message from a person that I ended on bad terms with. The text simply said, “I miss you.” Of course, I was shocked. I didn’t know what to say. I have almost a completely new life now. I gave myself plenty of time to forgive this person even though I never actually received an apology. I honestly didn’t miss anything about this person. Nothing about them was ever good for me.
I simply told this person that I did not reciprocate these feelings. I told them that I hoped they were doing well, but I definitely don’t want to stay in contact. Of course, I was very polite about it. In 2020, I will strive to put myself first sometimes. I’ve been a welcome mat that people stomped all over for far too long. I am turning over a new leaf by learning to love myself and learning to not put myself into situations that I could avoid by thinking first.
One thing that has always helped me keep a positive perspective on life is music. So, I made a playlist with a few of my happy songs. These songs never fail to make me smile or do a little dance in my chair.
I hope your 2020 is prosperous. I know you’ll do amazing things. You are strong and you are worth everything good in life that may come your way. Try not to look down on yourself for small mistakes. We all make them. Encourage yourself to do better.
Peace out, girl scout 🙂
I LOVE just about every one of the songs on that playlist! Also, I am proud of you for the way you handled that situation 🙂 Keep your head up, love <3
