Day 211: I've Come So Far

I'm 30 now. I've landed a teaching job. I have come farther than I had thought possible last fall.

Things are actually lining up.

I'm grateful.

I've learned that despite the disappointment, despite being single, I have more love from people around than I know what to do with.

This is not to say that life is a never-ending rainbow. The "moments" are still plentiful and there are times that test my emotional resources, but damn it if I'm not amazed at where I've ended up.

I have affected change in people's lives, and many people have affected change in mine. It has been a long time coming, and a long time away from the blog. Too much to process at times, but all is well, and all is well, and all manner of things are well.

There's only one thing missing--well, I hesitate to say "missing;" let's say one thing I haven't found yet. But that will come in time. For now, I'm loving where I'm at, and I'm damn proud of myself for getting here.
