29. The last decade was a wild ride. I feel like I’ve been at least a dozen different people since I was 19 – I have lived a lot of life, being reborn again and again. I’ve grown, I’ve overcome, I’ve learned SO much. These last ten years were years I once never imagined I would have been alive for, but goddamnit am I happy that I stuck around for them. 20s are such a transformative time when you expand your awareness, pay attention, and let go of resistance. I lost a lot in my 20s: family, friends, parts of myself, and my innocence – that only scratches the surface. But I found so much more: community, love, ambition, wisdom, understanding, passion, joy, and the list goes on and on. I am proud of all I’ve created, and I’m so so so grateful for every part of my life right now. Thank you to my family who joined me in celebration yesterday, and lots of love to the people who couldn’t. Here’s to the last of my 20’s, knowing my 30’s will be full of success, comfort, and stability thanks to all you’ve helped me build for myself. I love you all so much.
