It has been a good while since I’ve opened my blog, let alone thinking of sharing something here. It came to my mind here and there, making me think of the past, and making me yearn for my passion for writing. It was only yesterday that I took my diary (not my art journal, a legit diary where I wrote stories and daily logs) again after a whole year. I am not joking, a whole year. I saw that my last entry was in March 2021, when I talked about how overwhelmed I was. It made me remember how much I loved writing, and how vulnerable I could get while writing, without being scared that someone would see or judge. Then I remembered my safe place, my blog once again. So here I am, my mind full of thoughts that don’t seem like they belong to me.
I have recently resigned from my job, I am no longer a teacher, and it breaks my heart. It really does. I miss my kids every day, I see my children in my dreams, dreams in classrooms where I am their teacher once again. It was a big change for me, and even though almost two months have passed, I am still adjusting to my new life. I am now working as an e-commerce and operations specialist in an agriculture company. I do love my new job as well, but it is something I have never done before, so I am still adjusting to my new… job.
Life is the life I guess, things change and all we have to do is adapt to them. Another recent thing is that I have opened my own shop, studiocloudybymel on Etsy. I am not going to continue with Etsy for a while, I will wait until I have more listings, so for now I’ll continue with shopier!
I have been reading a lot too and upgraded my domain, basically, I’ve been making changes for myself, to keep myself sane. No matter how busy I am, I must at least spend some time on the things that I love doing… right? So this can be considered a “new time” for me. For me to grow myself in art, in books, in museums. I will start studying again to get into university again, this time I will only follow what my heart desires. I will do what I want to do, which is to study Ancient Greek Language and Literature. Who knows, maybe next year I will enroll the university and start making more and more posts on here as well.
I will do my best to achieve my dreams nevertheless. I need to work on them to keep myself sane. Content. Happy.
Until then… see you later sweethearts.
