May 28th begin our travel across the states from Washington to Texas. It was a long and slightly crazy journey. A few minor glitches but we made it through. It was tough on are two extra drivers and our daughter. It sadly put a strain on their relationship. I’m saddened to see this but like I learned and taught my kids. In tuff moments we find out ours friendships deep meaning and how everyone reacts. It shows the river of truths of those around us. As we begin all of our new journey separate and together we express ourselves in anxiety over the unknown.

As my daughter headed back to Washington and began her new journey as a adult with her godparents guidance. As we learn our new surroundings as a family and our own self wants. We find ourselves being stressed and happy all at once. Which happens when you let go of your past and you remove yourself from the state you have always lived. As we have had a second child of ours off on their own journey and the sadness overwhelming takes a toll on us. We remind ourselves this is what we are truly proud of and it’s not as sad as we feel. Two amazing children we raised to adults and go in the sun too has out grown our home only and they are still apart of our family first journey to building our empire.

Today as I write this I still feel a overwhelming amount of stress sadness and anxiety. I remember my why I did this. Why I do have a happiness and blessings. We took our journey to the unknown new beginnings and rebranded us and our lives. Which I will tell you was the biggest need in our lives. I don’t doubt this move but all the feelings in the world will have a big impact in the beginning. As the days count on this journey my feelings of sadness depression and anxiety substantially lower each day.

Watching my kids happier then ever and adapting to the new surroundings and the biggest new start of our lives. It has been the biggest joy to see. The stresses and reminders from Washington only held us at a standstill for so long. Everyone has reminded me on that why we chose this. My kids faces is what makes it easier for me to get over the feelings of sadness from leaving everyone behind and starting over. My oldest daughter is amazingly doing well each day she conquers adulthood on her own journey. So we are truly blessed to be able to accomplish this first step in our journey.

It has not been perfect or has it been easy. My mind takes me all over the place. I’m having every kind of feeling you can think of. My kids have the same moments as my oldest stepping out on her own as well. But all in all the importance of this is the sun shining through the day in their lives and that each day we are learning new things. Which is more important than anything

Our lives are truly on the journey we have worked so hard to accomplish in Washington. Now we are truly taking those lessons from our history and applying them to our present. As we still have learning everyday in our lives at least we have learned from the past mistakes and now can begin with a whole new outlook and have a major new process today and moving forward. A

new journey of life in a new light. A refreshing way to accomplish higher goals and the ability to keep up to our own standards and own system without doubts and the constant challenges we faced in Washington. Yes I will have challenges anywhere but this will allow the history to be a life lesson not a reminder of what we have gone through separate and together as a family. Having a daily reminder and daily stress was not what we worked those last few years trying to accomplish.

Healing was our goal over the last few years. Learning from the mistakes we made over our lives up to here was the goal we accomplished. We had reached those goals and became stuck and some old patterns were popping up on us. So to continue this journey we started it took the biggest step of our lives and we don’t have any regrets. Any move to a new place is hard. Any child who steps out on their own is hard. But teaching resilience and learning experiences is a very important way I can help my children survive and continue a path to accomplish goals and building our empire or their own empire is truly important in addition to learning things are completely complicated and nothing is forever or promised. Work hard each day. Learn each day. Mistakes happen. Don’t dwell. Reboot when needed. Forgive yourself. Trust your gut feelings and prayers each night. Happiness comes from within our own self not from the sun. Our self worth is never to be lowered for anyone.

Just freaking do your best each day! Don’t doubt yourself. And do at least one step to your goal each day so you have the chance to learn and can set your self up in the right direction. No direction causes complete overwhelming terrible behavior. Having one goal each day can be the most important part of the journey and the best feeling of accomplishments.
