I started February with the hope of getting more clarity and direction for my next chapter. I took break from instagram and Facebook for the month. Sometime social media does a lot to our mental health and I truly needed the break. January was a hard month for many reasons so I wanted to take a break from social media for February. Of course I had to keep messengers and Snapchat to communicate with my family.
This post is just a collections of my thoughts through out the month of February. I started spending more time with God, being honest with myself even when I didn’t want the outcome, and overall trying to enjoy every moment of this journey.
One day I made a list of things I thought I would have or be by thirty. I know we’ve all had that by this time I want to accomplish list. I laughed very hard at some items on my list. Teenage and early twenties me would be surprised at the life thirty-one me is living. One of the biggest things on my list was I would be in a relationship by now and traveling the world with my man. Ha. Well, I am traveling the world but there’s no man. So at least part of that came true.
So that brings up the topic of dating in your thirties and abroad. Whew! That’s a whole blog post within itself. Just know it’s no different from dating in America. Men of all cultures are similar in ways there are some good ones and some f-boys in the bunch! Honestly, I think there might be a little virus or pee in the dating pool. We will discuss this topic at a later time.
February was truly a month of self revelations for me. I’ve come to the conclusion of I need to have weekly self-care days. That include more than just going places to eat but actually tap into some hobbies. I also decided that I will no longer accept anything or anyone that doesn’t align with my goals or peace.
Overall February brought a lot of uncertainty but at the same time I gained clarity on other things. I would give February a 8/10. It wasn’t a terrible month, and I truly enjoyed learning more about myself. March brings newness and I’m ready for everything that’s to come!
