A new chapter, page one of three hundred and sixty five. 

    2021 wasn't the worst year and as I reflect I know there were some memories and friendship's that will stay with me forever. I'm thankful for the people I met through the year who won't continue on in my life, who taught me a lesson and gave me the courage to let go. Letting go is the equivalent of dying; aside from the fact that the people you're moving on from are still breathing. You no longer have a reason to call them, lean on them, and one day they just vanish from your life. I hold onto friendships and relationships where I can see the potential of a lifetime. This year is going to be about working on my mental health and the adventure I crave everyday. To continuously search for kindness and humility within myself. Joy is the hardest thing to find when you aren't looking for it. So, here's to a year about me myself and I. Selfishly focusing on my happiness and embracing the people who add value to my life. "I don't know about you, but I'm feeling 2022."
