❤️ this old post we shared at Elf last year! I loved physics from 7th to 9th grade. AP-ed out for fast track pre-med. But now I am discovering again new parts I love!

…On another note, people who really love you, won’t ever hold you back from achieving! I almost married a person who just kept taking from me and put me down. It was awful and probably the worst decision I have ever made — was tolerating that!
With my early good upbringing I had, my own abilities and achievements at such a young age, you would have thought I would have achieved so much by now! However, with bad company, it really can set you back. Bad company can include friends and family — anyone who is exerting a strong influence and possibly control over your life and decisions you make or accept. You can’t make anyone good no matter how hard you try. They have to come to you that way. I learned my lesson and I am super grateful to have my life back. Still lots to go and time to make up for!
From Ted Lasso: “Be a goldfish.” Such simple but incredible advice that helps me get unstuck and also not ruminate too much on what cannot be changed.
From my own life, I will say, don’t ever apologize for being bright! ⭐️ Reach up!! As far as you can! 😊💋
I will surely make up for all lost time now!!!
A love of science is a love of discovery! A love of film is a love of storytelling! A love of music connects you to everything that has a heartbeat, and possibly more…
The more honest I am, the happier and lighter I feel! Simple 🙏🏻❤️ Frees me up to actually live - now in my middle age!!! But I hope in telling you all this, it may help you too. 😊
