Love your writing. Always have. That's beside the point….I believe that you are exactly where you need to be. One or so friends less, a different environment, new friends, new traditions, and a lot to look forward to. If we didn't live on different coasts I'd come take you out for coffee to tell you how awesome you are and even though one year changed so much you are becoming the person you were destined to be! Make sense? I hope so. Xoxo

I've noticed as I get older, minimalism is more my cup of tea. When my husband and I first got married almost 9 years ago, that first Christmas I had SO much stuff out and my tree was over flowing. Now, also close to 30, I enjoy more simple beauty in my Christmas decorations. It is so interesting to see how we have changed throughout our 20s 🙂

So beautifully written, as usual. I had actually hoped we wouldn't be putting up our tree at this house this year… but here we are. And that's okay. As someone who recently turned 30, I feel comfortable telling you that letting go of baggage is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself!

You definitely learn more about who you want to be, and who really matters in your life. Life gets better in your 30's too. 🙂

This was a very comforting post to read. And a great way to view a Christmas tree – constant. A comfort.

This made me cry. Life is weird, you know? I love how you put this. Your words are wonderful.

I know the feeling of letting people go and realizing you are nowhere close to the same person/place as you were last year. Sometimes it can be bittersweet!

It is crazy how much we can change in just one year, isn't it? I like your thought on not taking your baggage from your twenties to your thirties. Smart girl!
