Title: A Month of Silence—But Not Without Growth

Tweet

It’s been a while—about a month, to be exact—since I last logged in here on MyLot. Life has been quite a ride lately. Between work transitions, personal growth, and the never-ending search for balance, I found myself needing space, quiet, and a reset. I left my teaching job of three years, said goodbye to my beloved students, and faced the emotional toll that came with it. At the same time, I took bold steps forward—auditioning for online teaching platforms, preparing for demos, and embracing new possibilities. I’ve also been slowly building a cozy little corner on Facebook where I share joy and inspiration. And yes, I’ve taken time to breathe too, sip some coffee in peace, and let myself be still without guilt. Now I’m back, hoping to reconnect with this community I’ve always found comfort in. Sometimes, stepping away helps us see where we really want to be. Have you ever disappeared for a while—only to return and realize how much you’ve changed in the silence?
