New year, new start.
2012 shall be a good year. I'm going to make it so.
I started the year in a long-distance relationship that had been going on about a year at that point. Eventually, the strain of some mistakes made and the distance ended that relationship. I was hurt. I got into another relationship about four months later, one of which I probably was not completely ready for, but that seemed healthier than any relationship I had ever had before. Then my youngest daughter started having some behavioral issues and that took a toll on all of us. I got her into therapy and it seems to be helping, although it is taking a lot of time and effort, which is fine, because I understand there is no "easy fix" for the problems bothering her. Then I realized I had a lot of anxiety myself and started therapy again. Meanwhile, the relationship hit a rough patch at the end of November and although I thought things were turning around in early December, they then hit rock bottom and in a matter of 13 days, she was ready to move on. It ended three days shy of what would have been six months. I am hurting today but I have also had some really good conversations with some good friends and therapist and realized the other night that the mistakes I made were just that...mistakes. Things I recognize and CAN fix if I just put my mind to it.
2012 is going to be a year of working on ME and doing the best I can for my daughters. I want to travel some, do some things on my bucket list, get back into running/hiking and find happiness for myself. I know that only through this will I ever be able to be good for anyone else.
I wish all of you the best in 2012 and hope you find happiness as well.
