It's hard to believe another year is coming to an end. That means this blog project is winding down as well. I have been feeling guilty lately because I've been struggling to keep up. I got quite a bit behind, several times over the past month or two, and I've been looking forward to the final days of this project.
So I took a look back, revisited the first few months and kept going from the start all the way to current day. Now, I'm prepared to cut myself some slack. From January 1st, all the way through August, I never skipped a day. For eight months straight I wrote every single day. Even since then I kept up most of the time. I have decided, instead of kicking myself about the slip-ups, I'm going to celebrate the accomplishment.
Though my creative inspiration wasn't always there, though the writing sometimes felt like a burden, I have completed a piece of writing for every day of the year. I have written tons of poems, reflected on my son's eighteenth birthday and senior year. I have explored nature and processed my experience teaching college. I have celebrate girls, written about love and friendship.
I have found, even though we have had so much tragedy in 2016, love truly was all around me.
