2015

2015, here we go! The last full year of my twenties.



At start of 2014, I wrote that I wanted to take more risks, make time for art, be more vulnerable and face the discomfort of my fears. Reflecting back on the events of year - I think learning to step outside my comfort zone helped me realize that though there were still failures along the way, there were also small moments of triumph and self-discovery. Every now and then, I'd surprise myself and uncover something inside me that I never knew I had. What a freeing insight to receive at a time in my life when I thought I had already reached the limits of who I was and who I couldn't be.

In 2015, I want to continue to build off that and focus this year on letting go of emotional baggage and search instead for more meaning. I want to dream bigger, and live with greater purpose. Part of me knows this will involve letting go of my ideas of what it means to be successful. Maybe a year from now I’ll be making less money, or maybe I will have finally moved to a city I love, or maybe it will look exactly the same . But regardless of what it looks like on the outside, I hope I'm happier and lighter; excited to wake up every day and able to love others fully, both with my heart and talents.
