Here we are…light at the end of this year’s tunnel. I realize the older I get, more and more things change. Your body, your looks, your mindset, your attitudes. Change is inevitable regardless,  but as you get older, it hits different…at least I think so.

Things become somewhat clearer, priorities change. Some changes are natural,  and some changes need to be made. Got to look at change as a good thing. It’s a constant,  big or small, natural, or not. The world stops for no one. Got to adapt, stay ahead of the game.

I see what needs changing.  I’ve looked at myself and the situations around me. I see where there needs to be change with self and what is around me. One thing I realize is I can’t help others without first helping myself. I am one of you, and am going through a lot of the same things.

Every problem has a solution….have to identify the problem first. For me, my health and my mental health are first on the list. Being a victim of grooming and abuse has taken its toll, but time to seek the answers and help I need to get it back. Finances would be next. This year was a rough one, and I’m sure others feel the same. Need to be more responsible and get that back on track… priorities.

Goals. Make a list. Check it twice. Think about what needs changing and how you’d change it.  Somedays will be better than others. You’ll win some, and you’ll lose some. Just like the world and life doesn’t stop, we shouldn’t stop either. I know I struggle,  but I’m still here. No better time than now. Besides, not getting any younger.

So let’s take control of the goals….find the issues and come up with a plan of attack.  Rome wasn’t built in a day. I’m grateful that I have another day to work on myself and make my life, and maybe the lives of the people around me better. Older, but not out. Gotta get moving.
