Gratitude

A New Age

Thank you everyone for wishing me a Happy Birthday. I sincerely apologize for being so absent the last few weeks, as life has certainly shifted itself a whole new direction for me, and its sudden change caused me to remain distant so no one or nothing would be affected in a negative sense.

Truthfully, I am eager for this year to end.

I have faced so much hardship that it's become a challenge to remain the Optimistic person I've always been. It's sometimes hard to look in the mirror after facing a Divorce, many withdraws from family and friends, and also dealing with the sudden changes implemented on deviantART. Problems left and right have occurred and just stepping back for fresh air is somewhat therapeutic to me.

I'm Back Now!

I have somewhat recovered my old self. I've grown in a way to overcome any other issues I've overlooked in the past and I'm picking up the courage to speak up for what I believe in. It's easier to speak via typing, but sometimes typing just isn't enough - you have to take action and responsibility too.

For my birthday, I sold my old laptop and got a Surface Pro! I am beyond excited - I can multitask through notes, and finalize all of my overdue commissions and miscellaneous art. You'll see stuff pop up soon. I promise. For now, I have CV Duties to clear up (I'm sure most of you are awaiting 30+ responses in my notes..I've hit a whopping 200 during my absence - yikes!), and from then on I'll be juggling art and community relation-wise stuff.

So basically..you'll see the Artist in me, and the Volunteer in me. Let's get hype!

Conclusion

Lastly, I just can't thank any one of you enough for the birthday wishes, the mentions, and the overall support and understanding you've given the last few months.
