You are not alone...

The title of this post is much more than just one of my favorite Michael Jackson songs. It refers to the massive amounts of people that have completed or are in the process of or will soon begin their debt free journey. This is a very important thing to remind yourself since it can feel very lonely at times along the way, especially when you think everyone around you is buying new things and going on cool vacations.

I've got to really keep this post short because I'm not feeling too hot. I've caught a nasty virus and I'm afraid I might be hurting for several days. But I couldn't break my streak of consecutive posting days. It's kind of funny because this has been the best I've ever done with a New Year's resolution...and it's still only the 17th of the first month....hahaha. One thing that this resolution has made me realize is that I think about my debt free journey everyday. Some days it's obvious (i.e. I'm paying the bills or making a budget) but other days it's much more subtle (i.e. tossing my change into the jar or bringing my lunch to work).

Another great benefit of this blog is that I've been able to talk to many people about their debt free journey as well. It's really cool to know that others are in this thing with you. Best of all, it will be awesome when all of us reach the finish line and can truly live with ultimate freedom! I hope that day comes soon for all of us. But in the meantime, I feel even more confident to know there are so many others doing this journey. I hope my thoughts and experiences help you in your journey, just as I have been able to learn from so many others.
