Pressing on toward what lies ahead


Okay..yes, this is my cliche "end of the year" post..but there's something to be said for reflection, revision, and refocusing goals. There are so many rhythms in life and taking time to recharge and plan are pivotal parts of it.
   Now, many of my highlights of this year can be found here, but since that only goes up til my 25th Birthday in August..I'll add more here. This year was full. 365 days of joy, sadness, fear, worry, and hope. Oh, so much hope not only because of realized dreams and milestones, but also because of the milestones and even in the midst of loss. 2012 marked the goodbye of so many people who touched my life, and I'm not naive that 2013 will bring some of the same..that's what life is about--ebb and flow, birth and death. If anything, the deaths of many I knew helped me to take time to think about the reality of death and the temporary time we each have on earth. I want to look ahead and live each day knowing it could be my last. I dont want to go into a detailed account of the year..but here are some photo highlights that sum up 2012
