I got out of a long term toxic relationship but the backlash from the ending of it ended up causing me turmoil over a few years timespan. During this timespan I met a guy who is now the absolute love of my life and my future spouse, I decided to move out of state, leaving my friends and family, to move in with my S.O and shortly after was also encouraged by him to go to college and get my degree .. so with his help, support, and encouragement I did! Besides him, college was the best decision of my life, it was so much fun! Two years ago I graduated with honors from culinary school, a feat I dreamed about but never thought possible, with him standing by my side. I'm not even going to pretend leaving was easy, or that I didn't still struggle .. I miss my old home often but I have crossed off so much from my bucket list, I have grown so much as a human. Six years and counting I have truly never been happier in life than I am now! I guess sometimes taking a leap of faith that seems impossible is worth it!
