there’s something so bittersweet about the passing of time and this year, i feel it acutely.
so goodnight, twenty-two year old self. you were a good year.

so goodnight, twenty-two year old self. you were a good year.
When I was 23 I:
Went to China
Went to Guatemala
Worked three jobs (I6, Partridge Den, Nanny)
Moved to Madrid
Got presbytery for the first time
Finished T-Center
Thought I was in love (I wasn’t =))
Wrecked your parents car
Experienced grace for the first real time
Cried a lot
Made amazing, amazing friends who are friends to this day
It was a good year for me.
I know it will be for you.
I loved you dearly when you were 22.
I will love you so dearly when you are 23.
It is bittersweet. And you made me cry. I know the year to come will be wonderful for you!
