I have loved every second of
writing on this blog. I have loved hearing your thoughts and feedback, I have
loved writing down parts of my journey and sharing it with you, and I have
loved keeping a log of all the things I’ve learned over the years.
This is going to be my last
official blog post for On A Journey….
The blog is two years old now (!) and, wow, what a journey it’s been. Out of
all the places I imagined myself in, I would never have imagined things being
like they are now. And a part of me finds that kind of scary, but an even
bigger part of me finds that exciting and intriguing; you never really know
what’s going to happen.
And although these aren’t ideal circumstances that my family and I are in right now, I have learned so much over the past couple of years since I started this blog. Back then I was finding who I am and learning to accept it; I was trying to become secure in myself and learn things about life that I wasn’t sure about yet.

Back then I was finding who I am and learning to accept it; I was trying to become secure in myself and learn things about life that I wasn’t sure about yet.
And after these two years, I
feel that I know who I am now. I accept myself the way I am (most of the time!)
and I also acknowledge that I’m allowed to change. My opinions – my likes and
my dislikes – are allowed to change over the years.
The girl I was two years ago
when I started this blog is barely the same girl typing this right now. I’m
different. In a good way, I believe. I know who I am.
And by no means am I saying that I’m perfect or that I have it all figured out, because that’s not the point here. In fact, that’s the complete opposite of the point.

I don’t have it all figured out. I’m starting a new season in my life
and, really, I’m only just beginning.
So I’ve decided to start a
new blog, dedicated to moments in my life that I would love to share. I’m
planning to share recipes, musings, good experiences and opinions. I want to
spread sunshine and individuality in my new blog.
So I hope you’ll join me on my new journey; this new season in my life as I blog from a different perspective.

Back in the early days of On A Journey… I thought I knew what the
destination was. But now I’ve realised that it’s not about the destination
because, ultimately, this life is only temporary. It’s about enjoying the
journey towards wherever I will end up; enjoying the moments that make life
worth living. And this is what I hope to blog about from now on.
So this is my goodbye to On A Journey…, I guess, and a thank you
to all of you who have followed me on it. It’s been a great journey, and here’s
to the next chapter of our lives.
I’ll hopefully be seeing you
over at my new blog, to be published hopefully very soon!
Love,
Ellie ♥
