This picture was my key back in to blogging mode.

I found this particular picture while I was roaming around one of my favorite musician's website and I saved it to my desktop for some reason. Later, as I was talking to my mom about life, we came onto the subject of taking our loved ones for granted. It's hard for me to imagine my life without all the people I care about and I'm scared for that first time I actually will have to deal with losing someone. hopefully that won't happen anytime soon, though.
I'm turning 20 in a few months and have been somewhat sad that my teenage years are ending. For the past 19 years I have lived the most amazing life, and I think sometimes we all lose sight of the lives we live. I know I take for granted just about everything, but I'm happy to know that I have come to realized that fact and I can try to lead a better more selfless life, taking in all the wonder around me. Sitting in my college apartment dorm and looking around at everything I own and the 100+ pictures on my wall of the people I care about makes me really appreciate what I have and what I have to look forward to.
So coming upon my birthday in May, I won't be sad to be leaving behind my teenage years and childhood behind me, but instead I'm going to be grateful for all the memories I've made and excited for the new adventures my 20s will bring me.
Have a wonderful weekend,
Holly
