Positive Life Events: A Year of Growth

What positive events have taken place in your life over the past year?

Hmm…quite a few, I think!

It’s actually been quite a distressing and lonely year. But, despite that, I feel I have accomplished a lot.

A massive, but positive event for me this year…was completing 10 months of EMDR therapy for C-PTSD. This was undoubtedly, one of the hardest, but necessary challenges for me….well, for a long time, anyway!

I joined the world of WP blogging. I believe I’ve made some wonderful friends and have built some positive connections. I have learned a lot and I hope I will continue to learn from my fellow artists, writers, poets …

To be featured in “FEATURES by VALENCIARTIST” on WP, of which I’m truly grateful.

I quit smoking!

I picked up my paint brush again.

I have completed two paintings, and I’m currently working on my third and fourth.

I continue to write the final chapter of my memoir.

For those who know 😉…shenanigans & 💃💃💃 will be escalated in 2025! 😂😂

Happy Saturday, my friends! ❤️

  1. Nice 👏👏👏👏 , for me to , I started blogging and made a lot of friends, got to know different types of people, left toxic people, gained weight ( it’s not good though 🤧) , watched good series, made some lifetime achievements etc . Yeah there were more bad things but one thing is : I grew up more from 2023 . I stayed alive 😎.

  5. Well done.

    Writing is very cathartic, and you are in the land of the creative nation! Make the most of it. It’s great for recovery, celebration and for finding that support network.

    Its good to connect with you.

    1. Hi! I hope you don’t get this the wrong way, because a lot of people don’t extend a friendly hand to strangers. forgive me if I just invaded your privacy. but I hope you understand. I’m just trying to be friends.
