So another decade is coming to a close. As I grow older the time seems to just fly by. 2019 has certainly been a wild year for me. Again I made it a priority to get out to explore the beauty of nature. And boy did I find some amazing landscapes, and had some excellent adventures.
For the past eight years it never really sunk in that I’m chronically ill! Yes I’ve had the terrible flare ups associated with Ulcerative Colitis. The frequent bowel movements, intense pain, and weight loss are just a few of the symptoms I was dealing with. But my mind has always been focused on battling the disease. I never thought about how my life has completely changed. I mean really taken the time to let these thoughts and emotions pass.
2018 was a whirlwind of a year, with so many extreme ups and downs. I was lucky enough to spend a lot of time outdoors, capturing the beautiful landscapes, and sharing some special moments with old and new friends alike.
