It's been over a year since I've written a blog post or put much energy into writing my book. I guess you could say that life happened, and I felt no motivation for whatever reason. Maybe I was too closely focused on others' energy, or perhaps I just needed a break from the social media matrix.
Whatever the reason, it's wild to think how life can happen in the blink of an eye and how much I've gone through and grown since then. Sometimes I question, "What the actual fuck? Haven't I been through enough already?" Then I realize time and time again that the universe has my back, and I trust that I'm exactly where I need to be.
Just over the past year, I've embarked on a new career with a design firm in Bali, hired an editor for my book that I love (yes, I'm writing again), had a few relationship mishaps, grieved a few deaths, including one of my dogs, found out why I keep getting very sick (I will share in another post), and learned more about myself than I thought was possible.
I'm aware that life's hardships and lessons eventually lead to gratitude and that AHA moment if you pay attention. Heck, I could probably write several new chapters in my book; we will see how it goes. Now that my break time from writing and sharing has concluded and my story continues to unfold, I am uncertain of what is in store for me next, but I know with a little bit of blind trust comes hope.
Much Love,
Lauren
