I’ve learned that I can’t control that and it’s nothing for me to stress out about now. What’s most important is living in the moment and being forever grateful for what you have and for what you’ve experienced. I’ve found that stressing about the future has only made me feel worse because it is so unknown and irrelevant right now and once I’ve started to accept that, it has been a much more positive experience.

I’m able to be truly happy for people, which is a new concept. I had, in the past, thought I was truly happy for people, but my own mental health problems clouded that and caused me to feel jealous of their happiness. But now, because I am at peace with myself, I can find true happiness in the joy of others.

I should also take a moment to introduce my travel companion Emerald. Emerald is a Beanie Boo loaned to me by my lovely daughter Kaylee for my trip to Ireland. Kaylee selected her as my travel companion because Emerald is actually from Dublin, Ireland! I will be sure to post lots of pictures of our adventures together.
