I hope I can make everyone's new year a bit happier in 2024...

I hope I can make everyone's new year a bit happier in 2024. I certainly thank you all for helping me survive 2023, and sticking around while I process and work through the emotional Rollercoaster of a life I live. The thing is I used to love Rollercoasters, even though heights cripple me. When my journey began 2 years ago, I would be crippled by so much more than heights. Like crowds, talking to strangers, paying in change, confrontation, embarrassment, the dark, bees, going out alone, eating by myself, losing my path, not having a methodically planned out existence, not have at least 2 back-up plans incase the first one failed, losing my possessions that I worked my life to build up, not having my mortgage payment, 2 months ahead, not having defined goals to exceed, to name a few. The universe clearly wanted me to be free from all of those fears, worries, and crippling anxiety that I lived every single day. I literally used to throw up everyday from stress and anxiety, and suffered from heartburn since I was 12 years old. Even though my life is nothing remotely close to what it used to be; I am stress free, I haven't thrown up one time, my anxiety is completely gone, and I don't have acid reflux at all. I just had a hotdog for dinner which I have not been able to eat most my life. I may have no stability at all. I live wherever I get a room for the night at, in whatever city I am taken to by a random stranger, or where I walked to, and I walk away from everything I own often, because of many reasons, and yeah it's kinda stupid, but life is so much more than possessions and they don't hold me back at all anymore. I am completely free to go wherever I want, whenever I want. I don't worry about what my neighbors think, because everyone is my neighbor and the thing is, nobody really gives a shit anyways. I am going to continue to be me, walk the path I have always walked, thats full of kindness and good intentions, and I will continue on my journey to wherever the hell I end up at. I will keep choosing happiness because its a far better look and so much easier in the end, and I will always take the value of the lessons learned from the past and build a better future for myself and everyone else that I have the privilege of encountering along the way.
