Sometimes life flows in chapters. Today is the first day of a new chapter for me. I know that it's only been 5 months since my last post, but it seems like everything has changed. My wants, my priorities, and my outlook on life have changed. I've just started working at Sorensen Communications as a relay operator. I relay conversations between deaf and hearing users. I read what the deaf person types to the hearing user over the phone, and then type what the hearing user replies to the deaf user. I'm catching on quickly and enjoying my work there. I'm still living with my parents in West Valley, and I'm very happy here. I love being close to my family. We all joke, and talk, and play together. Me and Ben are no longer together. It hurt. A lot. But for whatever reason, I feel like this is the direction my life is supposed to be going. I hope one day that we can be friends... but I'm not sure if that will be possible.
I'm not exactly sure what the future holds anymore. I thought I was sure, but I've changed. I'm going to live each day to it's fullest and try to continue to discover more about myself.

Great for getting a job, and sorry about you and Ben.
Keep having confidence!

I'm so proud of you! Your job sounds perfect!
Ben will figure things out, though he doesn't feel that now, he will...there's a lot of years left to live, choices to make. He'll get it. You gave him all you had to give and he'll be a better man for it. You've prepared him well for whomever he'll marry.
Love,
mom
