Sunday

People have been asking me how my transition has been since my return from Costa Rica two months ago. My dad summed it up pretty well: "Take a look at what happened to the 'Why I love my life' blog." Time here happens so fast -- I have zero time to slow down, breathe, and appreciate life's little miracles. I've forgotten all the reasons why I love my life.

Now it's time to remember.
