Diary of a 20 something

Almost 28🦋

I can't believe I'm almost 28. Just yesterday I was that 23-year-old young woman who started this book. This 20-something is so close to a 30-something. A lot of people get discouraged to age but not me. I've been beyond my years since a little girl so I find peace in aging. I love to look back on everything that I've been through and most importantly what I've grown through. I get so emotional every year around my birthday because truly I have beat so many odds meant to destroy me. God. That's it that's all he has his hands on me and he doesn't play about me. I love that for me and I love him. So much has happened in this very year alone that has been sent to destroy me and I still keep going. I will never stop being me and growing in my truth. Year 27 was magical. Even through the pain and lessons. One thing about lessons them blessings gone hit on the other side when you keep doing right. We are forever going to have something to learn as long as we are here. It's been a long time coming but I know the change is gone keep coming. We always have something more to change. A big change for me was getting back into my Bible. I'm very much still on a spiritual journey but I had to learn that even though people put their negative views on the word of God and using religion to push a narrative that doesn't mean you let it all go. I learned for me that being spiritual and not religious works for me. I look for what resonates with me and keep pushing. Not all agree but hey we are all on different paths. I wouldn't judge anyone else on what they choose to do and I would hope for the same. Besides life is beautiful and chaotic. I chose to keep seeing the beauty even through the storms. I thank God every day for life because it was a time when I didn't value mine enough to keep existing. I am forever grateful that I'm still here to keep learning and telling my story. So here's to 28 coming sooner than later. Be blessed I love y'all. ❤️
