10 years ago today I would have been
:: In college
:: immortal like all the other 17 year olds
:: working at a pizzeria (okay, I won't glamorize it... I was working at Dominoes Pizza)
5 years ago today I would have been
:: a wife
:: waiting for him to come back from Iraq
:: Secretary for the health department
:: dreaming of opening my own Montessori school.
1 year ago today I would have been
:: divorcing
:: suffering from : depression, anxiety, insomnia.
:: finding new and interesting ways to be self destructive while still embracing the old ones.
:: diligently fighting for what I wanted, finally.
This year I am
:: living in Rome
:: Healthy
:: Never been so alone ... never felt so alive.
Today I
:: saw the sunrise
:: hung my laundry out to dry on the terrace
:: Took a blanket and a book to Villa Borghese then I napped under a tree.
:: had cacio pepe, one of my favorite Roman dishes.
Next year I hope to
:: Go home for a visit. (I miss my family)
:: Have an apartment with Kristy
:: be shooting weddings
:: see you in Rome
In five years I hope to
:: still have my grandma
:: be filling out adoption papers
:: have more muscle on my a**
:: be this happy
