Hello.

Welcome to my diary. Here I share my journey and life with multiple sclerosis (MS). 

32 and glow

32 and glow

Thirty-two, September 4 💫.

I don’t feel bitter about my age, (my 25th I found out I have MS) or as this blog may tend to ek out of me, I can be dark. Thirty-two years on this earth and I have survived the many tests of time in my life 🥹 —with many more to go 😮‍💨. But I will say I'm happy and excited for what is next.

Thirty-two glowing and growing ✨.

It feels good to breathe air of maturity and peace with what’s within (I read so…peaceful 😮).

Virgo season is H E R E and we mean business when we show up 💅🏾 👢 👡 👠. 

Things I’m looking forward to:

  1. Getting to know more of me.

I’ve overcome, am overcoming a lot. I need and am learning the dire importance of having grace with myself. There is only one me. I need to become patient with my slips and falls because it is only this Virgo’s nature to bounce back.

2. Grace and self-love.

“Ashey, have grace and mercy with yourself,” Charolette.

With this disease, it has taken and requires a lot from me. I must find grace with myself, slow it down to rebuild and not let MS run my show. ✋🏾 that sounds and looks so easy…of course, easier typed than done.

3. Planning 32

I can be an overthinker, over planner, an avid list maker. What I would like to do is manage my time more effectively, set and accomplish my goals, with my mindset, my job is never done 🫠.

4. Work hard, play harder

Now that the adulting talk is done. I need to learn to embrace this disability even more. I feel that is the only way I can triumph. Style myself more—I love doing this (nails, toes, hair 💅🏾, things that make a girl feel good.) . I find exciting things happen for my good, when I let go, and truly I work damn hard. I can play hard too.

Each birthday now in my 30s, I like to glow up (maybe that’s adulting for real 😯).

5. Being intentional about my decisions

I can second guess myself time after time. Being more confident with my decisions is a must. I’m getting older. I damn sure am wiser. I need to lean in on “moving the needle” and trust myself.

I can be anxious waiting, but the best way to settle is to go do it. Right? That is what I plan to do. Responsibly..,maybe a little wrecklessly 🤗, we shall see.

Moving O N W A R D ☄️.
