Small and Simple Things

So this summer has been really interesting. At the beginning, I was scared, because I opened a new chapter of life, alone. I had so many different things going on and changes that I was not prepared for. However, as summer is coming to a close, I realize that I wouldn't take back any of my decisions for anything. How things turned out for me, were exactly how they were supposed to. I can honestly say that even through the emotional roller coaster I face on a weekly basis, I have found an inner peace, a sense of serenity and happiness that I have never had before. It wasn't from a specific moment or day, but the past few weeks, as I reflect back, have been filled with small experiences that I have come to cherish.

  • Catching up with old friends, relighting that connection from long ago
  • Bike rides, even in the disgusting AZ weather. Oddly therapeutic!
  • Getting ready for college applications, figuring out a plan, and realizing just how quickly I'll be on my own, all grown up
  • Seeing a mother and daughter reunite for the first time in years at the airport
  • Feeling homesick for the first time in a long time
  • Meaningful conversation with my parents
  • Seeing my little brother growing up and becoming someone a little too similiar to myself
  • Re-reading my favorite old books
Well I will keep adding as the experiences keep coming... loving life! <3
