Growth from isolation

You are probably wondering what in the world I am talking about. We ll it is quite simple. Regardless of your isolation circumstances are at the moment be it if you are isolated with your partner and children or a newly connected couple or even if you are isolated alone. It is a time to really take stock of what you have been missing out on and the things that you took for granted because you were always in such a rush to just stay on the go that you really forgot what it meant to actually love those who are closest to you and what you have.
We all find ourselves in this constant rat race that is modern living that we forget what it means to count your blessings and really show gratitude and appreciation for the things that you do have. Everyone is constantly chasing the next best thing when everything we really need is already in ourselves.
This really is a time for self-reflection and introspection and really looking at what is in your life and what you want from life, do those things actually match up and fill your life with all that you want. Do they meet your everyday needs? I have definitely done alot of self-reflection and introspection over these months and weeks especially after taking the steps that I have to get to where I am and I have to admit that I wish I had done it sooner but at the end of the day, it was things that I wanted to do for a very long time and like a lot of people, I was procrastinating. I don't do that anymore, thank goodness.
At the end of the day, we will all need to grow into better and stronger versions of ourselves than we were the day before, this is a daily habit that needs to be formed early on in order to create better lives for ourselves I certainly have and am truly grateful for the growth and transformation that I have experienced over the years and especially in the last 8 to 12 months. It has been amazing.
The proof has shown in my life in that time. For many years, it was suggested to me that I should use certain platforms to get my message across and to join certain things and I will admit that because I was hesitant about them all, I ended up procrastinating due to my anxiety and the depression was also an issue. My brain was literally holding me back. Once, I did get onto those platforms, it did help alot.
One of those platforms was LinkedIn. So many people would ask me if I was on there and I should have been and since I did sign up, I'm actually glad that I finally did. This is what has helped to skyrocket my growth. The others such as Facebook and Instagram have also been instrumental in aiding that growth in business and personally as well as I have met so many amazing, inspiring and influential people on all of those platforms.
So, let's take a break from this discussion and get to the usual business with the #ootd from the past 48 hours:
Here is yesterday's:
Now for today's:
For the next little while, the little starlets get to shine. As you will see here, starting with yesterday's:

Here is today's:

These looks were to easy to put together, I can basically do it with my eyes closed I have gotten so good at it. I'm not trying to blow my own horn here. I just know how to do things the right way and get the results I want.
Here is yesterday's look put together:

How about today's look. A stunning one:

Thank goodness, that from Friday, I will be able to show you how much the skyline has improved and cleared around here in the last 5 weeks, it looks amazing, the weather has been playing ball the last couple of days
This was yesterday:

Today started out like below and then tried to get a bit wet this afternoon but that only lasted for about half an hour, maybe a bit less:

So much has changed in the world and thankfully for the better, things are returning to a more balanced and natural state. Let's hope that it stays that way, it would really be greatly appreciated by all the nature lovers, like me.
I have been through so much and many times, I have had to go into some form of isolation and had to increase safety and security around me but each time I have grown so much as a person from those times.
So with that being said, I will see y'all soon.
Happy Saturday.
