Disappointment; it’s a hard pill to swallow. Sometimes the weight of said disappointments
can sit on your chest, you feel like its snuffing out your very existence; the
hurt, shame, and embarrassment that comes along with knowing that you
failed at something.
What I’ve learned in my 29 years of life is that it’s
easier for me to get over when someone else disappoints me. But what happens
when you disappoint yourself? How do you
get over that?
As I sit here and pen my thoughts on this keyboard, I analyze
the feelings of disappointment that I currently feel. I’m 29 years old, I’m in the midst of ending my second
marriage and I’m a single mother of 2. I look back and I think to myself, how
did I get here? Where did I go wrong, while traveling down this road called
life?
It’s so easy to look back and say I should have, I could
have, but the reality is that I didn’t. So I’m learning to hold myself
accountable for past mistakes and disappointments.
I embark on this journey of healing, of discovery and of learning who I am as a woman, and as a mother.
I know it won’t be easy, hell nothing in life is. However, I’m
determined to embrace this new chapter in my life and I invite you to share in
my journey.
Welcome to A Single Mother's Journey.
