People are complex--each of us have a million experiences heredities environmental factors social factors genetics physical bodies mental characteristics that determine who we are. Never mind what happens during the minutiae of our lives to change us.
Six and a half years ago my life crashed around me when my marriage ended catastrophically on all planes and I was left with three young boys that I could only care for half time.
Out of those ashes came the beauty of a new discovery of who I am as a woman. I told my boys that things happen to us but that we can't let them change the core of who we want to be.
The last 6 years have been about consciously feeling the pain
choosing to move forward
rebuilding a life on my own but with God by my side with every step
embarking on a new career path
exploring dating in my 40s (yikes)
My siblings (4) all left northern BC immediately following graduation and some people like to tease me about still living where I was born and raised
at high school reunions we're "the ones who never left" cough cough
Am I northern girl?
Hell yeah and proud of it!
Just what that means you'll have to come back to find out...
