Reflection I
Amy Kay
Reflection will be a series of posts by me; reflecting back on my life.
I've been reflecting on my life as of late. What led up to today, what actions got me here, and what can I do for a better tomorrow.
Until Fall 2025, I've been in a personal hell, sometimes of my own making. Sometimes because I can't admit when I'm wrong, sometimes I make a bad decision and am yet to realize it until it's too late. Or, because of those around me.
School and therapy have helped turn things around, but sometimes that's not enough. My friends, and the good people around me have helped me get out of a dark hole, but it also took me gripping onto them to finally get out of it.
My plants have given me a form of self care. I, no matter what, have a purpose because of them.
I've made some plans to start exercising more, taking more walks, finding a new bicycle to ride, etc. Going outside, exploring the city more, exploring hobbies that I didn't think I'd get into.
It's all very refreshing and helpful. It's self-care at its very core.
I know I can be very pessimistic at times so I hope this post can help others realize that it's not all doom and gloom.
