Life is certainly a crazy journey, filled with seasons that you do not necessarily realize you are navigating until you end up in the next one. I have spent this great journey trying to improve upon my life with a focus on physical, mental, and spiritual growth.
I have no regerts. At the end of the day, we are the response to the collection of what we have experienced in life. If I had regrets, I wouldn’t be who I am today. That being said, I’m not where I’m meant to be in life. I’ve always sought to improve myself, to challenge myself to be my best. Take note — not the best, my best.
After the 2020 chaos that turned into the 2021 catastrophe, my life changed A LOT and as I resettled to a new place I never wanted to be, I made a declaration for this new life of mine: Second Half, Best Half. I decided that if I was going to lose that which I bled, sweat, and cried to gain, that this second half of my life was going to be intentionally focused on living my best life and not getting carried away with the waves.
I realized that I spent so much time working hard to get somewhere to find that when the waves crashed and I went out in the deep, I was clinging to that which wasn’t necessarily the best. It’s something we usually don’t get the chance to realize because we are too busy clinging to see the better out there.
As I navigate through the Second Half, Best Half, I want to share what I’ve learned along the way. This will include my attempt to live clean, “attacking myself,” wisdom of a jack of all trades who masters none, my pauses for intimacy with God, and what it means to me to live simple and simply live.
Join me for my Second Half, Best Half.
