The last year is almost a blur for me. I feel like I’m in a time warp where yesterday and 365 days ago are one in the same. I realize that I have to look back through photos to remember a lot of it. I find myself more grateful than probably any other time in my life, for even little things, and do not want to take anything or anyone for granted.

It turns out that narrowing down a year’s worth of photos from a new place is not easy, nor is labeling them consistently with all nouns or verbs or adjectives that end with -ing (at least they all end with -ing). A few other words I would add are loving (God, people, and the area), meeting (new friends), missing (people and places), & listening (to music, which has meant a lot to me this year).
