12.22.24 // 34th Birthday

I HATED having my birthday on December 22nd for much of my life. I wrote about this last year and how my perspective has shifted as I've gotten older.

11.11.24 // I've Shifted

Not because of my hobbies or the thoughts that course through my mind, but for the first time in my life, I feel like I've shifted by the places I've visited that I'd written off and now look at with curiosity.
