In the beginning...

Today is a new day and a new year is around the corner so I thought I'd take the time to start a new blog to help focus and guide my journey through the next year. A lot has happened in my life over the past five years, graduated college, met who I thought was the man of my dreams, got married, got a full time career job, started graduate school, left my husband, got a different job, got divorced, moved to the city, started painting again, started dating, started selling my art and here I am. I'm 28 years old with a full time job, part time graduate school, an art business that keeps me busy and stresses me out more than my real job that pays my bills and in the end I feel like I'm on the wrong path. I've always wanted to go to law school and always dreamed I would, but as I fastly approach 30, I wonder if that's really what's in store for me. My journey to where I am so far has tought me nothing if not that I have no idea what's coming. All my plans have failed in one way or another. Not to say that the path I'm on is a bad one, it's just not where I thought I'd be at this point in my life. So where do I go from here? Do I try and get back on the path that I have quietly dreamed about or continue to plug away and see if the journey I'm on is where I really should be heading?
