38 is hitting hard today!
As I reflect on another year gone by, I can't help but feel a mix of emotions. The loss of my twin sister still weighs heavy on my heart, and celebrating without her by my side feels bittersweet. But I know she is watching over me, guiding and cheering me on from above.
38, also brings with it a sense of introspection.
I find myself comparing my life to those around me, age-mates, wondering if I have achieved enough, if I am where I thought I would be at this age. It's easy to get caught up in the comparison game, but I know deep down that everyone's journey is unique and that success looks different for each person.
Despite the challenges and doubts that may linger in my mind, I am grateful for all that God has blessed me with. Beautiful children, and other things I can not mention. The highs and lows, the victories and setbacks - they have all shaped me into the person I am today. And for that, I am thankful.
So as I blow out the candles on my imaginary cake and make a wish for the year ahead, I will hold onto gratitude for all that has brought me to this moment. Here's to another year of growth, learning, and embracing the journey ahead.
Happy birthday to me and my twin whichever world she may be.
Another chance to endless possibilities.
