What a year. Lot of memories from the last 12 months. Learned a lot about work, about this new city, and about myself. It was a year for real, forced, growth. Some positive highlights included:
This last birthday (24!) was an eye opener for me - seems like my quarter life crisis came a year early. I'm still trying to understand if your work and your passion should be synonymous - do passions change based on work? or should work change based on interests? I'm starting to realize that the 6-hour distance between Florida and Seattle is not "just a flight away" - am I currently just in a transitionary period? I'm trying to make difficult decisions based on what I believe to be the truth, even if my mind and heart collide.
I am learning from my friends that adult relationships take a lot of time to nurture, whether it be with those around you, those far away, or even with yourself. I have tried to dig deep into all these relationships as a way to get the most out of them. I've tried to accept that some people might only be influential in your life for a finite time, and you can cherish those moments but also be okay with slowly letting them go. I didn't make resolutions last year, but I think I'll start again this Jan (deep down, I'm a goals girly). Whether or not they are successful - up to the fates.
