Wrote something and finally felt the need to share it. New post on my blog. If you’re looking to take a dive into my mind a bit. // Link is in my bio 🖤 (at Valley of Fire State Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsi7sOwnIe5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1i2gncwj27sne

I love my people. Seriously couldn’t ask for better friends. Had the best night seeing our Golden Knights play! 🖤💛🖤💛 (at T-Mobile Arena) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bpc5AlVnDNd/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1h283rdnbsx1e

For all that I’ve lost, and all that I’ve found in life thus far, nothing will top dangling my feet over the edge. And I mean the edge of everything. Give me that adrenaline rush forever. Missing the PNW, and this spot in particular. (at Vance Creek Bridge) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo0AFXBFvAb/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=19ndduzja8ce6

Forever obsessed with this festival. Can’t get enough of you LIB. See ya next year. ✨ #lifeisbeautiful #justpassingthrough (when your sister’s your photographer, she makes sure she takes 11 extra photos to try and get that candid.)

Too happy to think up a clever caption so I’ll just leave this unreal picture of Alaska here. You’re welcome. 💛 #dslr #nikond40 #optoutside (at Crow Pass Trail) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnrEmvQl6Vv/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1r06xajcb0mry

Some of the darkest moments of my life have shaped me into the woman I am. Being able to dive back in and reflect on those feelings, yet know how far I am from them brings me more peace then I can ever describe. It’s like coming up for that first breath after you’ve been underwater for far too long. Below is a piece I wrote about my past. I don’t live there anymore, but it’s nice to see just how far I’ve come. ✨ It took me over a year to see you for who you really were To see what you were doing How you carved away at me Piece by piece Shaping me into something different Maybe someone you actually wanted But the more you chipped away, the less I became Until I was nothing But bones And breath Simply here Simply existing I left not long after that I had a will to live And I wasn’t able to do that with you. #poetry #growth #35mm #film https://www.instagram.com/p/Bncj7NElxkd/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=5oudep4225du

Back at work and having withdrawals. Needless to say, I’ve been looking at plane tickets since yesterday 🙃 (at Alaska)

The sky cleared up for the first time since I’ve been here yesterday. And I also came to the conclusion that I’m never leaving this immensely beautiful place. So, I’d say it was a really good day. (at Flattop Mountain)
