I looked back today at where my life was just 4 years ago. I read my journal and went through my blog archives, and I was astonished! Never in my wildest dreams (or nightmares) could I have ever imagined where I would end up. The future is simply not predicable, I'm telling you. You may have plans, but they just don't turn out *exactly* how you think they will, sometimes they turn out better and sometimes not, but in the end, they turn out just as they were supposed to.
I was severely struggling in my life; my marriage had ended; my dad had passed away and I was feeling lost and confused and walking around in circles. Amazingly enough, I was trying to be positive about life and throwing my humor and sarcasm around to survive it, but I really lacked direction. I got it together, though, and made some major changes, and I am such a different person now. I'm still a little sarcastic, but in a much different mindset. I feel like I have almost lived an entire life in 7 short years. A big event was about to happen, my promotion and the move to California, which set so many things in motion that I was unaware of.
