I took a photo every day in May. I’m at a loss about what to say about this month. I had some amazing experiences, ate great food, and spent time with excellent people. Yet, I’m not meeting all my personal goals in regards to fitness or financial saving/spending.

On one hand, I want to pay off debt (e.g. school loans). On the other hand, I am only young once, and I want to embrace and enjoy all the good experiences I can. Also I want to diet and exercise regularly, but I also want to be a good teacher and friend. I imagine I’m going to continue to have some internal struggles and debates with myself, as I strive to find some balance.

Yet, as my friends know, I am good at seeing the positive side of things. I am very happy with my life as it is right now. I never knew I could be so happy or recognize how blessed I am. Even if everything goes to shit tomorrow, someway somehow, I know everything will be okay. I am happy knowing that I am not one of those people that think all the good times are behind them.
