Thankful

It's Thanksgiving here in Canada and I have so much to be thankful for this year. 

The past 12 months have been a whirlwind, full of excitement, surprises, so much happiness, and of course, a healthy amount of stress. The experiences I've had over the past year-and-a-half have taught me so much about who I really am and who I want to be. The stress, fear, and emotional roller coaster that was last summer were a necessary step towards finding that place that just feels right. For that, I'm so grateful. And grateful for my family, who have supported me unquestioningly throughout this entire process and made it possible for me to follow my heart. For my friends, who have never wavered, even when I'm sure my ideas seemed nuts, and made me laugh when I wanted to cry. For this city, which has always felt like the only place that truly fits. And for my love, who is thoughtful, supportive, intelligent, interesting, and pretty much the best thing to ever happen to me. So. Thankful. 

It's been a good year, you guys. Here's to many more. xo
