I Was. I Am. I Will.

I was a child who made mistakes. I was a teenager who made poor, selfish choices – especially involving my relationships.

I am now a woman who’s learned a lot but still has a lot to learn. I am trying. I am grateful.

I will do better to be better. I will be kind to myself.

Just a few “I” statements I needed to release. Declarations of Nicole. I don’t have high expectations. I’m looking at it more as a treatment plan. My own therapy. Co-pay to myself. It’s not that anything is wrong or bad or in need of resolution. It’s more that I like challenges.
