I am slowly taking my voice back!

G'day mate!

The weather's gonna be cold in the next few days, Amihan is coming. And I do hope that the forecast was right because I will be sad if it's not. The weather doesn't have to do anything with my article, I am just bad at introductions, you know. It feels awkward, eekkkk..Forgive me, dearie. And I hope this one's gonna live an imprint on your soul if you've been in the same situation as mine.

It has been so long since I felt like a stranger to my own self. I was like a sailboat on the sea of change with no direction.

Living in a place where only you can protect yourself, like your opinion and judgment doesn't matter. Adopt and never complain. When you feel like someone's envious of what you may become and he's stopping you from getting what you want.


Things have changed because I've had enough! I finally have found the courage to strength to speak up and say how I feel. I now have the determination to live the life that I want and not what somebody wants. I am now strong enough to assert what I wanna do to reach my goals and my dreams. And I haven't forgotten my obligations as a mom. But being a mom doesn't mean I cannot fulfill my own dreams and shape my own future. I won't grow old having my kids as my retirement plan. They will have their own lives, and so am I. I am going to grow old debt-free and financially stable. I am going to grow old living the life that I want, not stuck in the house and just waiting for something to happen. I am gonna get that life that I deserve, that freedom that's meant for me.

That happiness of going to places and gaining experience. That chance to meet other people, know their stories, and share mine. That opportunity to become a part of something bigger than myself after I've successfully reared my children. I am slowly taking my voice back, my life back, one step at a time. One small win at a time. One little dream at a time. One positive change at a time. One feat at a time. And nothing's gonna change my mind. Because that is what I want.

And I will exert my best effort to live my life according to the calling of my soul. That I can have a margarita on the beach while I am watching the sunset. That I can dance to the beat of my heart in the silence of the night. That I can have and love a pet that I so desire. That I can have my own dream garden and a swing while I watch the shooting stars merry the sky away. And that one day, I will hold someone else's hand while lovingly gazing at Aurora borealis or australis and say, "This is life". 

And I hope you are living the life you've dreamt of my friends. If not, are you nearly there? Do you still want to pursue your aspirations or are you already happy and satisfied with what you have and where you are?

And I just wanna say, "Thank you very much", to the awesome owners of read and noise, and to the rest of this wonderful community. You guys changed my life.

I am feminine, my language has many adverbs and verbs. In English there is no such thing. Sometimes I translate my articles into my language and I am amazed I am translated as a man masculine.My name is Jana
