what a great year... thank you seth.

time passes. all is new.

new new new.

i remembered the chiclet holiday the other day, like an old friend that moved away. though it is more accurate to say that i am the one who moved on... and moved back.

i am in grand rapids, the very place i was thought i was destined to leave. and though i found so much friendship and beauty and adventure while i was away, i also found love and a place to know home in a completely different light. his name is seth, and we are building a life together now.

i want to write about what is new. and hope that in writing about it, it will hold me accountable to living the kind of life i dream of.


it is a new kind of holiday, but i like the idea of everyday being some version of just that.
