Peace at last

2021 seemed like a blank canvas for me

What can I say, things changed differently than how I imagined it to be

Everyday went by and for the most part felt the same

I mean who can I blame?

The gray clouds and shivering chilly breeze saddened me

Still being new in this different state, I was completely lost… What could I do?

I had no new friends just my old ones from back in my state

But I’m an optimistic person, things can get better

I’d joined XC however couple weeks into training I sprained my ankle

Never in a million years did I think I couldn't run. I love running! I played soccer & volleyball my whole life, and not being able to run for months was horrific.

Laying in my bed just blaming myself for not taking any precaution and overwhelming myself

I felt like I was covered in an ocean

But a rainbow does come comes after a storm

Things had to get better!

With my summer not being how I imagined it to be

I still had me

Winter seemed to make me free

I made some new discoveries

And was happy for the little things

I appreciate my downfalls, it made me, me!

My 2020 self is appreciating my 2021 self

With the situations I’ve overcame, I’m so thankful for the opportunities

Things change for a better reason

End of 2021, everything fell into place

I have yet to find peace

However I am content

I am better than how I was then

I enjoyed my fails and my improvements

Like I said everything happens for a reason

Everything does.

I’ve realized my discoveries made me a better person
