Yesterday was my 50th birthday.
It's crazy that I got to this milestone, because if I'm honest, I didn't think I would. After all, t's been 32 years since the last time I tried to exit from this little blue marble.
I'm glad I failed.
The life I have now?
I didn't know it was possible.
I didn't believe I deserved it.
I've made mistakes, sure, and most of them? Self-sabotage.
I mean, those people were going to wake up one morning and decide that I was horrid, a monster, too much, not enough, etc. and leave me. Might as well be the bad person I assume they will learn I am.
(Thanks, abandonment issues.)
So here's to the second half of my life.
Thank you for being here.
