First thing is first



So this is it, I am not a great writer, but a great thinker. I have been meaning to do this for a long time, but never got around to it. I had some time to think today on my passenger seat ride home from Fresno. What was I doing in Fresno? I was visiting my best friend and her amazing family. My boyfriend and I made a last minute decision to drive up to Fresno to help my friend and her family make the big move out of the home they were renting for almost 3 years, and into their very 1st purchased home! Both Nick and I were so happy to have been a part of the big transition. Aside from visiting my good friends, and playing with fireworks being legal in Fresno. I was also excited to celebrate my favorite holiday. I have always loved the 4th of July, and the reason has never changed. I am simply, proud to be an American. I do not take my freedom for granted and I think the 4th of July is a healthy reminder for the people that do. It is that very reason that I started this blog. I love provoking thought, and appreciate the little "reminders" in life. We are all human and often get a little on the selfish side, so days like the 4th are a great way to remember, it's not "all about me"

Peace & Love
