the moments we live for

a month into 2022, it might seem a little late to be looking back on 2021. but sometimes, life moves pretty fast, and we have to stop and remind ourselves to pause and take a breath.

and to be quite honest, there were so many good moments last year that i had to share. better late than never right?

from reuniting with my boyfriend after being about for 438 days to spending the summer in europe (canceling my flight so i could stay even longer) while finishing up grad school and graduating (again) to visiting my best friend and exploring colorado for the first time, there were so many good moments.

so many pure moments.

although this year had it’s share of ups and downs (as does every year), these moments reminded me of what makes life worth it. sometimes, it seems like there is a pressure to be living a picture-perfect life. but i think the truth is that we have to go through the difficult, uglier parts of life in order to feel the good moments to their fullest.

and when those picture-perfect moments happen, it is okay to enjoy them to their fullest.

these are the moments we live for.
