Wow 10 years in the making, I wish I could go back and tell her that life is about to get rough. Marriage breakdown, covid, a relationship that is going to destroy her and then meeting an incredible man who will heal the parts he didn’t break. That she will lose all the friends she had in 2016 and that she will see people come and go from her life. And while these challenges are all occurring she will learn many lessons, heartbreak and just how strong she is. She will take a leap and join a community that will change her life for the better! She will meet some amazing authors, make new friends near and far and while some will leave others will stay. Life may not be perfect but it’s pretty freaking amazing 🤩
