Ange,
It's been quite a journey over the last five years. And I know that you had no idea you'd end up here five years ago today. But, that just goes to prove that sometimes our vision is too limited when it comes to all the possibilities of what's out there.
You helped keep yourself on track with your vision boards, hope and a good dose of reality. Keep it up! It really helps!
Some changes have been easy, some have been difficult. But the greatest thing of all is that by opening up yourself to change you have accomplished so many of the hopes and dreams that you had held onto for so long without getting anywhere.
Life now may not be exactly as you'd hoped, but that doesn't mean it won't happen. For all the baby steps you've taken, can you believe that they have gotten you this far? Think of where they could take you in the next year and also in another five years!
Don't give up. Keep living in the moment. Keep taking care of yourself and keep loving your family and friends who stand by you no matter what.
There will be more challenges and triumphs along the way, but with all you've survived and accomplished thus far, you know that you will continue to do the same in the year to come and others after that.
Don't stop believing and don't forget to kiss your children and husband everyday, like there won't be a tomorrow, even if they're not in your life just yet.
And most of all remember - you are loved...

Ange,
Don't give up. I know things are difficult personally now. You have such a small amount of time left until you finish Uni. But you have no idea where that degree where take you. All the things you hoped to do and learn right now are actually yet to come. And they happen at exactly the right time!
Right now you're not ready. You can't see all the things you need to learn about life and yourself before you can fully receive all the things that are to come.
One thing I do wish you would do is love and accept yourself more. You can't see it just now, but these unhealthy friendships are simply due to the lack of boundaries you give others because you don't respect yourself enough. And unfortunately for you, you haven't learned that lesson yet, so the worst is yet to come. It's a life lesson that you're not willing to look at on a personal level and to understand your fault in the process.
You can't spend your life blaming others, or yourself for that matter. Don't take life so seriously. Tomorrow does come, but won't forever. Live, laugh and be more willing to give to those who are worthy of your gifts. Right now your social circles are limited because of the limits you place on your life and therefore yourself. There are many people taking, most of whom don't deserve. But this is life as a young person just newly living independently. It's nothing that you can't handle, although it may not feel like it at the moment.
Remember you are only beginning to tap into what you are capable of. If you don't achieve what you hoped for it's because you haven't recognized all you are capable of yet, but you will. Don't forget to believe in yourself, and no matter how long it takes don't give up on your dreams. They are in you and they are alive, you are just reading them incorrectly and will for a while. But they will appear at the right time and show you the way. I know when the time comes you'll be ready to listen!
Be thankful for the fact that you have been so loved, and don't forget the fact that you have loved as well as you could in return...
