Today is where your book begins. The rest is still unwritten….

Today is the day that I began officially ‘moving’. I’ve been struggling for months, trying to figure out what to do with my old home. My first thought was to tear it down – start over from scratch. But I remembered how much I regretted deleting ‘Woman Thou Art Loosed!’. I hate not being able to revisit the ‘me’ from that era and I didn’t want that to happen this time….
So instead, I saved everything and decided to transition here slowly – reposting old entries and comparing them to who I am today. It’s been kinda like cleaning out my closet and trying on old clothes, seeing which things still fit – which things I’ve outgrown – which things are completely outdated and which ones to save because they eventually come back into style.
The first post that caught my eye was the “Angry White Bytch” piece – probably because I was rocking PINK! on Pandora. Funny, the 2009 me feels the exact same way that I did when I wrote those words back in 2006. And ironically, I find myself in the same place that I was 3 years ago – spiritually, emotionally – the whole 9. I have been racking my brain wondering if everything in the last 5 years has prepared me for this moment OR if the 2009 me is supposed to look back on the 2004-2006 me and avoid the same pitfalls.
Have I truly lived and learned? The rest is still unwritten….
