HELLO WORLD

So, why am I here?


I am here to represent the under represented population of young empty nesters. I am 33 years old, with a handsome 18 year old son who’ll venture out into the world on his own in a very short time. Starting this blog is a way for me to build my own life. There was so much that needs to be expressed in this season and I’m here to share my views.

This blog will be meant to help others who may be going through early empty nest. I knew this day was coming but I didn't think it would be this emotion. As a young mother you want your freedom back, you nurture them to become independent and stable adults but you never really consider what it would be like when they actually leave your nest. My son will be transition into his making his own adult life.

Blogging seemed like a great way for me to build something for myself and establish my own mark on the world. This process is hard. I will share how I feel because others can only empathize and not truly understand unless you are experiencing it first hand. So you can have the opportunity take part in this journey while I make new memories.

When I became pregnant it was a shock to everyone, even me. Some people were loving and supportive, while others were judgemental and down right mean, not only to me, but my parents. I developed this complex, that I never realized I had. I thought that I had to prove myself successful to those who looked down on me.   I needed them to see  they were wrong.  I was determined to show them that my life was not over.  In order for me to do this, I knew I needed a plan.

Lessons

  Hello! It’s been a long while since I’ve written but lots have happened. There are so many lessons that life teachers us. We often do not know that they are lessons until we are licking our wounds caused by this lesson.  I’m a strong believer in God and spirituality. There are battles being fought in the spaces beyond what  we can not physically see. However, as these battles are being fought we are advised to use intuition or discernment to identify what’s not a positive part of our life’s journey. It is in the middle of those spaces that we learn our lessons. It is in those spaces we have encounters with others. It is in those spaces that we begin to walk another course that being a lesson in which we will pass or have to repeat the test at the culmination of that path. With that being said I’ve learned that it’s ok to let people go. I have always struggled with letting go or leaving people where they are after they’ve mistreated me or we’ve grown apart. I guess that’...
