I know it is. Because my favorite color has been purple since I can remember having a favorite color. Green was always second and sometimes orange was thrown in there as a third. But lately I have found myself just loving yellow and pink. The same thing has happened with food. I never used to like olives, mushrooms or sun-dried tomatoes. Except recently I’ve been adding mushrooms to scrambled eggs every time I make them, eat olives straight out of the can as a snack, and find I want to make recipes with those tomatoes in them.

I know seeing those changes as the same thing as being able to adopt new habits or create a different personality or reinvent a career is ridiculous. But for me person it feels like an indication that change is imminent in my life. And that’s a good thing. I’m in a new house with the opportunity to find a new career path, discover new interests, continue to work on being the best me I can be, and having fun, loving myself and enjoying life. So it feels right that the colors and foods I’m drawn to are changing too. Starting over completely, with nearly everything feels healthy and refreshing.

I’ve been doing well for quite some time now. I’ve worked hard and will continue to do so. But I imagine I was held back a bit from making even more progress by being in a place I didn’t really want to be in. I will be taking a break from writing here as I focus inward on me, my happiness, needs, desires and my kids. I will continue to journal though so maybe someday I’ll come back here and write some of it down. Until then, thanks for being here with me.

Love!
