2022 has come with a bang!

As I spent the holiday with my sisters and my dad I could not help but get caught up in my feelings about big changes that are going to be taking place soon. My father has go away for a while and the impending doom feeling I always get crept in, making me feel powerless given the situation.

However, during this particular moment we were in a snow covered winter wonderland set a top a mountain that had just been covered in a white blanket the previous night.

My family has unfortunately experienced a lot of trauma. It is unfortunate but because of this our communication is terrible and it always upsets me. It shouldn’t have to be this hard. But I do love my family endlessly because maybe without all of our collective experiences we would not be who we are today.

My sister put it perfectly as my emotions took over in the lodge because no one saw me as I cleaned and tried to secure a table for us all to have hot cocoa. “We are scatterbrained and we are a mess but we still go on.” This is true and it is frustrating but at the end of the day we try and just being together is a success.

Cheers to 2022 and growth!
