I don't think I've fully expressed...
...how much my heart yearns to travel. ...what the sight of white christmas lights does to me. ...how grateful I am for the man who gives me food, rubs my back, and makes me laugh so hard I'm pretty sure I might spit out my apple cider. ...how full Alexi Speich can make my heart. ...the joy of memories associated with the smell of fall leaves and the taste of apples. ...how sweaty my armpits get when I'm really nervous. ...the simultaneous fullness and brokenness that comes when being around families. ...how proud I am of my sister for striving towards health. ...the joy that bubbles up inside when I look at his dark skin, small squinty eyes, and toothless smile. ...how hard and beautiful it is to be moving into this new stage of life. ...the freedom I feel when dancing to "Shake It Off." ...my gratitude for those who chose to keep loving me.

This made me cry. Because I'm trying, but I'm failing. And I'm failing hard.

I'm guessing I'll have it all figured out by the time I turn 30.
