Lately both Rae and I have had a lot of signs, and old things come up about the past.
Rae was reading her blog post from high school, and the comments people left her in her yearbook where traits she doesn't even remember about herself.
We had a nice chat about it, she was concerned as if she lost that person. I told her to see it as she is that person, and the person she is now. That old girl is unfamiliar because she is now so many versions of herself. That is what life is about I think. Growing, changing, and morphing into the best version of yourself.
I had my little moment today. I whipped out my two old kind of like journals/ quote list/ drawing book. Just basically these two old books where I write how I am feeling, random thoughts, I have cards and pictures in them. Going through these made me so happy. I had a similar reaction as Rae. Seeing my thoughts, how positive, open , and raw they are, I almost missed that girl. but she is not gone, she is right here, just an even better version.
I am so happy that Rae and I keep things like this where I can look back on it, learn from it over and over again, and also be reminded of these times, and steps that I forgot I went through.
This came at a perfect time, for a lot of reasons.
Never forget who you are and were, but also never forget to continue to allow yourself to change.
