• Searching and Living Life


by Artieka

Today is the last day of my favorite month of the year. This month I moved six hours away from my comfort zone into an apartment in a new city, turned 25 and weirdly enough I am still working to resolve within myself why I took those steps at this point in life.

Tonight, I updated my goals for myself on Mint.com so that I can attempt to be a responsible adult with my finances and work toward another goal of mine. I’ve had issues with living life on the edge. I’ve always wanted to and although I wouldn’t exactly consider what I’m doing on the edge, it isn’t the safe life choices that I’ve attempted to make in the past. This year, I resolved that I would put that version of myself on a shelf and live for the now. It hasn’t been scary yet but I imagine those days will come.

So far, I’m enjoying life in Atlanta. I could use a friend or 3 visiting more often than not and a bit more income (but couldn’t we all use more money) but other than that, life is ok. Or as I like to say, I could complain but why?

Day 1
by Artieka

TodayToday, I texted my accountability partner and said that we should do the 31 day reset. We’re both at different places in our lives and I felt that it was one of those times where we both needed to step back and access what needs to be done in our lives.

So I am doing the 31 day reset.

Today’s item was easy (only because I’ve started this journey before and have to finally finish it this time around).

I think for this year I want to be able to say that I’ve lived. I turn 25 in a few days and I know that it’s been a troubling journey but I know that it will be work the time spent.

So for a mantra, I will choose “I lived. I loved.” That about sums up how I feel. I want to be able to say I lived life to the fullest and I loved every minute of it.
