Better and Brighter Things Ahead

With each passing day, the weight of the past began to lessen. I felt a renewed sense of freedom, of living a life free from the chains of judgment and expectation. Jacob and I began to plan our future with renewed vigor, looking at homes, discussing wedding plans, and dreaming of our days ahead. The world felt brighter, and full of possibilities, and I was determined to seize them, hand in hand with the love of my life. There was hope, there was opportunity and the future held great promise.
