2021 was an eye opening year just as 2020 was. It was the year of boundaries and knowing when to stop fighting. Here’s what I learned in 2021.
Regarding boundaries, there were some relationships that I had that I had to question last year. I removed myself from relationships before and after some further reflecting, I found that there were some others that I needed to rid myself from. In reflection, I realized that a lot of my relationships-familial, platonic, and romantic- have formed due to what benefit I give to other people. Loyalty and being helpful are two of the qualities I pride myself upon, but sometimes, people will use you up if you let them. Unfortunately, I had to understand that some people in my life were doing just that. I had to distance myself in order for me to heal and understand my power.
I am still on my spiritual journey and working on me as stated in Road to My Higher Self. Recently, I found that there was something that I was still holding on to that no longer served me. That big thing was my job, or should I say previous job. You can read about that in full here.
To sum it up, I wasn’t happy and was stressed out. I tried several options to stay with the company but nothing worked, so I had no choice but to walk away. In other words, I quit. It was the best thing that I could do. Since then, I have been the happiest I have been in years. This last 4 weeks have felt so light and peaceful. With that situation, I learned that being optimistic and hopeful that things will change is great in most instances, but when everything is showing you otherwise, it is best to throw in the towel. Sometimes when things are not moving your way, it’s time for you to start moving another way.
2021 was a year for the books. I started this blog, began tarot reading professionally, and quit a job I hated. 2021 also taught me what I should and should not tolerate in my life. Most importantly, it showed me my self worth by teaching me boundaries and what to stop fighting for. And that’s what I learned in 2021. As always, talk to you later ladybugs.
