Hello, my dear friends.
It’s hard to believe, but it’s been 16 years since I first started writing here. Sixteen! Can you imagine? So much has changed — and yet, when I scroll through these old posts, I can still feel the heartbeat of that younger version of me, typing late at night, pouring her thoughts into words.
For a while, I thought about rewriting those old posts — fixing typos, polishing the tone, maybe even rewriting parts I no longer agree with. But then I realized… I don’t want to change them.
This blog is my archive of memories, a time capsule of who I was. The mistakes, the laughter, the messy thoughts — they’re all part of my growth.
I want to revisit the bloggers I once interacted with, smile at my clumsy beginnings, and cherish the path that shaped me. Because through it all, Kate Mary grew into Cătălina Mariana, and I couldn’t be prouder of her. 🌿
And now, my dear readers and fellow bloggers, I’m beginning a new WordPress journey — one guided by faith, peace, and a deeper sense of gratitude. This time, I walk with God beside me, and my heart feels lighter, steadier.
If you’d like to continue sharing this path with me — to read my new posts, discover the books I fall in love with, travel to the places I visit, reminisce about the past, learn, laugh, and grow together — you can find me on my new page: Cătălina’s Blog ✨
It’s still on WordPress (of course — how could I ever leave this beautiful community?), and I’ll be posting new articles there from now on.
For those who’ve been with me here and wish to part ways — thank you. Truly. It’s been such a joy having you as part of my story, reading your kind words, and sharing this space with you.
Wishing you light, warmth, and wonderful days ahead.
With love,
Cătălina 🍁
