2008 ... a year in review :)

i have absolutely no words to describe what a year it was. a roller coaster ride. a learning experience. heartbeats. heartaches. academic success. yoga class :) girls nights. overanalyzing. tears. fears. life ... is a constant work of art. it's a constant work of words, feelings, shapes, sizes, and poetry. it's ephemeral. and yet on those certain days ... it's eternal. perhaps not the good kind of eternal.

it was not a happily average year. but i think ... it might have been the biggest, most extended learning experience of my life thus far. as a dear friend says, however, even at your lowest, your magnificent self is still shining. perhaps that's difficult to realize at that said time. because when you do walk with confidence, the world will love you even more.
