How’s the last 5 years been for you?
Saw a video discussing how much can change in 5 years, someone in their late 20s is generally gonna have a lot of changes from 5 years before. Have you had a lot of change? Do you like it?
End of 2019: I was in a new city after leaving a very toxic marriage. Broke, not knowing what to do career wise, alcoholism. 1 dog, living in run down apartment. Now: I’m in a new city again after having the worst heart break of my life (from a different relationship) (I’m over it now) 2nd time home owner. 2 dogs, solid career, actually considering a career change now. In a new budding relationship with a great guy. Vegetarian/Pescatarian. Don’t use alcohol as a coping mechanism.
A LOT of major life events happened between then and now, but that’s the main contrast. I am happy where I am at but I find I am feeling like I am not sure what to do with my life again. Also I made some poor choices regarding home purchases, so finances aren’t what I’d hoped but they aren’t bad!
