Life is Full of Peaks and Valleys

At 23-years-old,  I can officially say that I am in a "valley." I  recently lost my first "real job" after graduation and now I am feeling lost. While my first real job was less than perfect, it was a job in my career field and that felt pretty good. But months past and I hated being there and eventually it was just time to part ways. I worked bad hours, most holidays, every weekend and it started ruining my relationships... I have to remind myself these things when I start feeling like I really messed up.

So many people that I know have landed amazing positions this past year, and it's hard not to be envious. But I'm trying to remember that my 20's are supposed to be about finding myself and that's exactly what I extend to do.

My whole life has been about getting to this point... once school is over and adulthood officially starts. I've been doing it for about a year now and I'm still scared as hell.

With one day at a time and one mistake at a time, I'll find my place. Maybe I'll travel? Learn to Bake? Take photos of beautiful things! There's has to be more to life than landing a job...

XO,
Bexs
