“If you talk about it, it’s a dream. If you envision it, it’s possible. If you schedule it, it’s real.” – Tony Robbins

Well well well, look who’s back! Oh Lord, my last post on here was almost eight months ago! Time really flies by when you’re in a tussle with life.. and it’s about to get even more interesting! In less than two weeks my daughter and I are moving to a new country! Yup, ish’s about to get REAL.

Before we get into all the exciting details, let me tell you, the past year has been a year! I’ve experienced so many emotions; sadness, frustration, happiness, anger, grief, and more happiness. This journey has definitely not been the easiest, and even though i’m not yet at the finish line, I have to admit I feel pretty darn proud of myself.

I’m human so yes, my faith in God has faltered throughout this process, but, in 2019 he has shown me that he’s working and no matter how bad I want something, it will not be mine until he decides it’s time. I got to a place where I stopped believing the light at the end of the tunnel even existed, much less to look forward to it. The day it all started to fall into place was just the beginning, as his blessings have not stopped flowing, it’s actually pretty overwhelming! Now, the question I have been asking myself is this; “is this really greener grass?” Well folks, i’m about to water the hell out of this grass till it becomes green enough for me!

The Destination

We’re moving to CANADA! Finally my dream is becoming reality. I’ve been dreaming about, researching, and planning for this for the past 10 years believe it or not. Fresh outta high school I told my mom I will be moving to either Australia or Canada. Mind you, I have never visited either of these countries. However, when my daughter came into the picture I eliminated Australia so Canada it was.

I spent the last two years making preparations and making sure I met the requirements. Moved back to Jamaica dealt with sitting at home while job hunting..getting a job not even remotely related to my field of study and not being the happiest in that job..dealing with the application process and waiting (the wait was the worst!). After exactly eight months and three days the flood gates opened, now here I am, just days away from the biggest, scariest, and happiest move of my entire life (for now).

My first post on this blog spoke about Transitions 1 and 2, well here comes transition 3. My biggest, and most exciting challenge is about to begin and i’m taking you guys along with me. The countdown has begun, more life updates coming soon!
