farewell…

The past nine months of this year have been “interesting” to say the least. I have experienced my biggest accomplishment, conquered a chronic fear and felt my greatest sorrow in a span of a few months. I have worked extremely hard in some aspects of my life and let others fall completely to the waist side. I have rekindled relationships that I hold dear and let go of old feelings that had been holding me back. I opened my heart up for the first time in a while to someone almost ten years my senior, and now due to long-distance I have to protect it again. And one July evening I lost one of the most important people in my life-my grandmother, which transformed me from a nonchalant, silly, care-free person to a woman with real concerns, responsibilities and a sense of perspective. Overall, I have laughed a lot, cried some, eaten great food, listened to some amazing music (Sade live!), traveled further than ever, taken great photos and even jumped from a plane!…Unfortunately, I haven’t found the time to blog about any of this.

I started this blog back in January 2009 as a form of distraction from the things that were going on my life at the time. I enjoyed writing/posting about random things and I have gotten a lot of positive feedback from my family, friends and even strangers. However, as with everything in life-all things must come to an end. Therefore, I am officially concluding this project. It has served as a creative/therapeutic outlet for me and I will miss it dearly. But don’t fret. I am starting a new blog soon to reflect a major transition that is about to transpire. So stay tuned….

Xoxo
