Goodbye 2013!

Goodbye 2013 and Hello to New Beginnings!

Its always a little sad saying goodbye to another year. However, I can't remember looking so forward to a year like I do for 2014. For the first time in a long time I feel totally free and ready to accept whatever 2014 has to offer me. The past 5 years have not been easy. With the end of college comes a lot of confusion that no one really prepares us for. I have been through a lot of job changes, heartbreak, and soul searching. But with the help of my amazing family, and wonderful friends both old and new, I finally feel at peace. I am excited for the new year, excited to see what changes will come ( I love change) and excited to let life happen. My goal for the new year is Balance.

With this new balance I am starting this blog. I have always wanted to start a blog but was never sure what to write. So I am going to just write about everything I am passionate about. My job (teaching special ed), activism, education, travel, fitness, body image, love, cooking and everything else I think about. Who knows where this blog will go, but that is the fun of life. I am a firm believer that we can not plan everything in our lives, we have to work our butts off and go along for the ride.
