The day has come! It feels like it was always just a distant daydream that would never arrive. The highs and lows of the last 10 months have given some of the most intense feelings and emotions in my life but every single step was a lesson in one way or another. Life as we…
One of my goals for the year was to completely de-clutter my life. Not only did I want to downsize the amount of ‘things’ I had but also the amount of negative energy and relationships I had. It’s only half way through 2015 (that sounds scary) but I feel like I’m making a great stride…
I have no answers. No insightful things to say. No advice to be given. All I have are a bunch of questions roaming around in my head. As the days go on so does our life. Turning the page, closing one chapter and starting a new one. Goodbyes are never easy and always seem to…
