Transitions.

When I arrived in Italy last fall, this was one of the first photos I posed for. I don’t look it, but I was pretty exhausted and I was afraid. I was full of unanswered questions and my hope meter was running dangerously low. The months before had taken a toll on me in more ways than I even realized at the time. This trip was the beginning of a leap of faith into the unknown.

I felt those familiar uncomfortable feelings again this month. For those who don’t know, I spent the last couple months bopping from one state to the next before finally settling down. Another leap of faith.

Change is inevitable. Some days have been hard. Others have been easier. Some have been just…okay. It’s going to take some time to adjust and get acclimated to my new environment and I’m learning to give myself that space.

These days, there are more uncertainties than existed last fall, but I’m discovering an abundance of lessons in this moment in time.

I’m learning to find joy in the ordinary and mundane. I’m learning to take deeper breaths. I’m learning to embrace each moment as it comes. I don’t know what this new season will hold, but I am learning to look forward to seeing it all unfold one day at a time.
