This twelve line song of mine fit perfectly into the annual recap. This was a magnificent year full of growth, experience, change, and love. Sometimes in ways that were not always so easy and fun. My mind and body took on some challenges of mourning, disappointment, hurt, doubt, uncertainty, and I can recall a few specific days where I reached a state of total exhaustion. And there were those lovely intestinal parasites in India. Now that I can sit comfortably and look back I can see the good it in all... cause it got me here.

To a place where I can say that I have never felt such a deep affection for my life, myself, and the place where I live.

Some lifestyle changes that happened this year were that I significantly decreased my dairy consumption, became more mindful of the amount of trash I make, started drinking green smoothies for breakfast, sungazed as often as I could, developed a regular mediation practice, started a monthly juice cleanse, and I became a business owner!

A million thoughts of appreciation for every single soul that was a part of 2010. Thank you.
