2010 In Review

2010 has been a great year for me. I have learned a lot about myself. The biggest lesson I've learned is how to enjoy life and the loved ones that surround me. In many ways, I'm not at all where I've thought I'd be.

A year ago I would have envisioned I was in a job that was a great stepping stone for a long term career. I would have thought I'd been at a more comfortable weight, not close to where I was this time last year. I would have though I'd feel more like an adult. A lot of would have's.

Instead, I've grown in other ways. I battled myself out of situational depression. There were so many major life changes in 2009 that I was not in a good state of mind. I realize the severity of it now that I've been feeling normal for the majority of this year.

I started and fell in love with Crossfit. Although, I admit I've been feeling a little burnt out from it the last month or two, but that's why I realized it's time for me to add other forms of exercise in my routine.

I became vegan. I would have never thought I'd be able to live this lifestyle. But every day I become more comfortable with sharing that I'm vegan and wonder why I didn't become vegan sooner. It's definitely my favorite life change this year.



So while I think it's important to have goals (like those I've already listed in the column to the right) I also acknowledge that there can be positive changes that none of us can ever imagine.
