Joie De Vivre: Summer 2014 edition

This has been one of the best summers of my life. 2004 was a great summer, also 2006, but I think this has been my favorite summer since! This is especially wonderful since last summer was one of the worst ones ever. Last summer my work was consuming me and making me miserable, on top of the fact I was not coping with turning 30 well. It was a REALLY dark summer. However this summer held so much light and joy. I went back and reread my journal from the summer,  it loved reliving all of these moments.

I am also really looking forward to Fall, lots of things on the horizon to look forward to as well. I’m just so happy that I’m so happy. One of my favorite quotes is “It is always the darkest before the dawn.” I pushed through the darkest hours and the light has never felt so good.
