Life...

It has been a while since I have posted. I feel like a changed, more solid person. It has been an incredible past few months of growth and I feel very blessed to have experienced all the incredible moments of joy and turmoil.

In December I faced two of my greatest fears in the depths of the cold Alaskan wilderness and came to a greater perspective of life.
I accomplished a goal that I have been unable to attain for the last 10 years and am pursuing others that I have put on hold for too long.

I have experienced and learned to love at a whole new level and have come to a greater understanding of compassion, responsibility, joy, and sorrow. I have had to learn how to say goodbye to my best friend.

Appreciating the good and learning to move with the tides

I have come to appreciate the life I lead, to stand up when I have fallen, and to take the reminders of what matters most in life and most importantly that it is a choice to live your life with grace and...dance.
