It Covers Me

I think the last time I did this was before Xanga went out of style, but I imagine I’ll get the hang of it soon.
Recently, lots of things have changed for me. Some changes have been awesome, some have been pretty rough, but those changes have made me realize that the most important word in that sentence is ME. For most of my existence, my life has been about other people. What other people expect from me, what makes other people happy, what everyone else wants. It’s been a very long time since I have made decisions based on what I want & need. So, I have decided, all by myself, that this next year is all about me. A year dedicated to doing things that are important to me & that will better me. It might sound selfish, but I feel like it might be one of the greatest things I will ever accomplish.

So, this is going to serve as my way to share this year with the people that care about me. I will share happy things, sad things, fantastic things, not so fantastic things, and every little thing in between that has to do with this journey. I have a growing list of things I plan to do & I could not be more excited to start crossing them off.

“Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound. Amazing love, now flowing down. From hands and feet, that were nailed to the tree, Your grace flows down & covers me. It covers me, it covers me, it covers me.”
