one year later

spent time with a friend i so enjoy. someone who is smart and funny and thoughtful with more good qualities than i can even list. level-headed and full of great advice. this time was a welcomed diversion. i sit here tonight knowing tomorrow is the one year anniversary of a very sad and tragic event. finding it hard to believe that a year has passed. feeling like my brain is being pulled in different directions.

there are some events where you can't find any positive. but from sad events sometimes come remarkable people and kind acts. i would like to focus my brain on the kindness of a community that makes me so proud to be a part of it. to know people who felt pain so deeply, but put aside that pain to care for a community in crisis. to see how one person can affect so many.

life is so precious.  trying to remember to appreciate it always.
