It’s been a minute and here we are into 2019! A review of 2018 brings to mind, new experiences, lessons learned and promises made; a year jam-packed with new adventures and aspiring dreams. It was also a year of personal growth—finding and sharing happiness and realizing that the act of sharing happiness is part of happiness itself.

From the day we arrive on the planet
And blinking, step into the sun
There’s more to see than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done

There’s far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high
Through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round

It’s the circle of life
And it moves us all
Through despair and hope

Through love and happiness…

With a lot of self-reflection and alone time behind me, I realized that the real moments of happiness aren’t about the things we do, the places we go, the sights we see or even the wildlife we encounter, they’re the happiest of times because we do them together. And most often behind the scenes of the photos I take there are loved ones sharing the experience with me.

Thank you, my very special people, for sharing this wonderful life and the amazing adventures.
