I just finished reading Year of Yes by Shonda Rhimes.  There were a lot of good tips throughout the book.  This was near the end of the book and it pretty much summarizes everything.  This is certainly something I need more work on...
“There is no list of rules. There is one rule. The rule is: there are no rules. Happiness comes from living as you need to, as you want to. As your inner voice tells you to. Happiness comes from being who you actually are instead of who you think you are supposed to be. Being traditional is not traditional anymore. It’s funny that we still think of it that way. Normalize your lives, people. You don’t want a baby? Don’t have one. I don’t want to get married? I won’t. You want to live alone? Enjoy it. You want to love someone? Love someone. Don’t apologize. Don’t explain. Don’t ever feel less than. When you feel the need to apologize or explain who you are, it means the voice in your head is telling you the wrong story. Wipe the slate clean. And rewrite it. No fairy tales. Be your own narrator. And go for a happy ending. One foot in front of the other. You will make it.

I'm not sure what I'll use this journal for. I do still have my LJ accounts from YEARS ago. One is sitting there doing nothing much, and the other I will do an occasional post. Heck, I even have MeWe and I just picked up Bluesky. I'm not sure if I will fully leave FB. I am seeing a LOT of negativity and spamming in my feed. I may reduce the number of groups and/or friends there. I don't know.

I may use this one specifically for my spiritual life or my mundane life. I don't know yet. The possibilities are endless. lol Only time will tell.
