heed the feeling in your bones
Today marks two years since the day I picked up a camera and joined Flickr, and let me tell you, it has been the most amazing and life changing two years I could have ever asked for. Who ever knew that starting photography could lead to so many things? I've taken skeletons to the beach, hiked mountains looking for waterfalls, and run around New York City doing crazy things with incredible people. I've let people out of my life and let the best people I've ever known in. I've rediscovered my love for piano through photography, gotten less shy, gained confidence, had the best late night conversations, 2 am google plus calls, and funny run ins with strangers. I've laughed more at the strangest things and created the best and weirdest inside jokes, made best friends that I know I'll have forever. I figured out what I wanted to do with my life, graduated high school, started college as a photography major, and completed first semester. I've done the oddest but best things that only photography, a 52 week project, and a 365 project could bring about. I've run barefoot in the snow, covered myself in bandaids, stuck leaves to my face with Chapstick, and run across empty beaches at sunset, wearing my mom's wedding dress. I've met my best friends in real life. And I've learned that I'm not alone.
So I just wanted to say thank you, all you flickrers out there, because you have been nothing but supportive and kind, and I am so thankful.
And to the friends I've become close with on here - you know who you are - thank you for everything. You mean the world to me, and I could not imagine life without you in it. I love you!
