It's a Wonderful Life

PHOTO: me (obviously)
Tomorrow is my official birthday and I've been doing a lot of thinking about my hopes, dreams, fears, challenges, loves, travels and desires from the past twelve months. In so many ways I feel I am fundamentally different than I was April 26, 2016 yet, in all-together too many ways, I feel I am the exact same person. I can only hope and pray that God gives me the strength of will to become in these next twelve months the best version of myself -- and can only hope my travels in 2017-2018 yield even greater fruit!
Thank you all for the birthday wishes. Taking a few days off the blog (and hopefully thinking) to just enjoy what a wonderful life I lead!
Cheers! XOXO!
