love always, kristin

Did you miss me?

Up until this summer began, I would typically write multiple times in a week (if not multiple times in a day). It was never because I felt like I had to, I’ve always loved writing. It’s always been so natural, so comfortable.

Then May came. Then June, and July – before I knew it I had already gone almost an entire summer without writing at all.

The weirdest part is how little I missed it.

In some ways, it was really nice to take a pause for a couple of months – to focus on living in moments rather than record them.

In all honesty, I feel like I took a break from a lot of things. My life sped back up and in the process I took a break from my reality, my new Colorado reality. That’s the thing about balance: you can’t have everything you want all the time.

Now it’s the end of August and I have already been back in Colorado for almost a month. I am checking back into reality and slowing back down again.

And I’m writing.

I almost forgot how good it felt to hold a pen.

I had more fun this summer than I have had in any summer before it. I felt so authentically myself and so extremely happy. As much as I didn’t want this summer to end, I’m getting back into a routine again and I’m ready for my balance to shift.

I have so many more stories to tell, so much more to say.

Stay tuned.

Love always,
