I'm a worrier. I can't seem to help myself. When things are going smoothly, I worry less. When things aren't going so smoothly (like now), I give myself ulcers trying to figure out how to eliminate all the bumps in the road.
I am slowly learning that some of those bumps are necessary, and maybe, just maybe, even adults have growing pains. I'm also learning that no one has it all figured out, and most of the people who say they do are lying.
I'm working on letting go of pride. I think pride really can get in the way of positive personal growth. I don't know it all, and I certainly don't have it all figured out. One year ago I would never have owned up to that. Now I've learned that there's nothing wrong with not having it all together all the time.
I don't have it all together right now. I'm 28 and I am not perfect, but you know what? This year is a year of transition. This is a year of change for me, big changes around every corner. These changes mean personal growth, and growing just doesn't come without some growing pains. Changes take some getting used to, but that's okay. It's worth it.
I've got a plan and a goal to work towards. I've got an amazing man by my side. I've got some great friends and loved ones behind me. I have lots of support, and I think I'm ready to take a leap of faith and see where I land.
