#New Chapter of Life

[sakkaira]

『まぁ、いいか。人生の次の章へ進む時だ。』

Romaji ¬ Maa, iika. Jinsei no tsugi no shou (h)e susumu toki da.

Translation ¬ Well, whatever. It's time to move onto the next chapter in life.

Hi, everyone. It's me, the author who consistently drops the ball on updating her fics. The last few months have been a challenge, to say the least. I've been struggling with my job, fighting to keep my spirits up while sitting at a desk and hating it, lying to myself and everyone around me by telling them I was fine, that I could make it work, that I was happy.

Well, I got fired yesterday. The reason is legitimate, and my own fault. My manager and HR director were very kind about it, and I'm glad I had the chance to work for and with so many good people. And while I'm deeply sad and angry at myself for squandering it, I'm also choosing to see this as a turning point.

No more offices. No more 9 to 5. No more "fake it 'til you make it."

I'm going to "live by my pen." It's past time I finally write that book I've been dreaming of writing for years. No more excuses. If I fail, then I fail, and find a new way to pick myself up. But I'd rather try and fail than spend one more minute regretting. I'm over it.

Does this mean I'm going to have updates for you? Well... maybe. I will do my very best. And I certainly have the free time now, for a while at least. I greatly appreciate the kind comments and check-ins I've received over the last few months. Even though I don't always reply, they do mean a great deal.

Final note: I'm officially a massive fan of 401ks. While I would prefer not to cash it put, that's money that can pay my bills and keep me solvent in the months to come while I get my life sorted out. I'll miss that, as self-employment doesn't offer that, but I'm glad I have that money to use now. Whether you believe in God or not, this is a miracle, and I am counting my blessings. This doesn't have to be a bad thing.

Anyway, thank you for coming to my TED talk. Much love to any and all of you who have stuck around and waited for my flaky ass to get to it. 😂❤️

Sometimes the closure you're waiting for is just you deciding it's done.

I just realized that May's gonna end tomorrow. A month later I won't be here at my home anymore. I have to face the world and it's challenges. Rather than being excited about this new chapter of my life, I am actually quite sad. There's sorrow and some fear buried within me that I only feel late at night.

Both Jack and Maddie stared at him, speechless. Silence blanketed the lab, everything but Danny’s strangled crying, his hand pressed over the muzzle as if to hide it. No- to hold it still, to still the dozen wicked barbs that were digging into his tongue, probably ripping it with each sob.

He noticed the spears resting not too far away from the women. Zuko squinted his eyes and recoiled at the sight of blood painting the blades, in clear contrast to the whimsical whites and blues of the South. These women were hunters.

The Southern Water Tribe brings shades of white to Zuko's soul in For The Spirits Chapter IX: A Rider Alone.

Sharpened mothers and fatherless children resting on the back of tattered tents. A Ghost-Mother, a shapeless howl, and the blue eyes from his dream—everything comes together in the land of the Midnight Sun.

I have added a quirky comment here for the last year and a half, however now… I have no words.

jk I have all these words 👇

I know it is very bitter sweet, but this is the end of Reconnecting. Thank you all for coming along on this journey with me. I plan on making a behind the scenes video on my YT sometime soon. Feel free to send any asks you have I want to answer them all!

Please know I am not going to dissapear! I still plan on making content consistently, and my original comic RULE 5 is already underway, and if you’d like I’m certainly not against writing some exposition fics for Reconnecting 💜
