29 Reasons Why I Am Excited To Be 29
*A Word*
1. Last year I was in a very low place. I wasn’t depressed but I was not happy with where I was in life. It was the first time in forever that I chose not to celebrate my birthday. I was not happy with where my dreams were and their level of reality and I was struggling with money and I was so “in like” with a man that refused to commit to anybody. I am so glad I brought myself out of that funk.
