So... I did a thing... I went and got myself a tattoo! When I was about 20 years old I got a little butterfly on my foot and truly, I never thought I would get another one. Needles are not my thing at all! This decision was not something that was taken lightly and it has so much meaning to me.
What this is for me is a daily reminder, an accountability, a slap in the face, a reminder that life is short and how we spend our life matters.
LEGACY: A legacy is the story of someone's life. The things they did, places they went, goals they accomplished, their failures, and more. Legacy is something that a person leaves behind to be remembered by. Legacies are pathways that guide people in decisions with what to do or what not to do.
"Leaving a legacy is putting a stamp on the future, and making a contribution to future generations."
The Legacy I want to leave for my kids... I want my kids to see me live my life to the absolute fullest. I chase hard after my dreams. I don't spend my time, I invest my time. I give others courage to chase their dreams. I overcome chains from previous generations. Mental illness, addictions, failed marriages, and leave behind generations of children that have a whole new legacy, completely set apart from those bondages of previous generations. I am a light in this world and through me people will see what it looks like to use God given gifts and talents.
I take great detail in every area of my life. My relationship with God, my marriage, my relationship with my kids, my home, my health, the way I treat people.
I leave a legacy of great financial stability for my kids. I work hard on the things that matter and I am very intentional about how I spend my time.
Each day has a plan and I execute my (God's) plans. I seek God daily and His will for my life.
I will not be deceived into believing that how I spend my life doesn't matter.
I know... intense right?? I have just reached this place in my life. A defining line and there is no turning back. I don't think everyone needs a tattoo to declare these important things. This was just my way and what I needed, but I hope this encourages you to take a hard look at things before we head into a new year!
I love you guys and I am so grateful for your support!

Here I am nonchalantly picking at my nails pretending I'm not nervous 😅
