Back to the Start

It is so strange to be back in Washington with the intention of sticking around. I spent so much time moving from place to place thinking I didn’t belong anywhere, but I found out that I really belong in the very state I grew up in. Ultimately, I missed the weather, the trees and plants, the culture, my siblings, my parents, the water and even the air.

I think I was homesick and in denial, because I wanted to prove to myself that I was fully capable of living in any location under a multitude of circumstances. In that process, I discovered that even though I could weather a lot of negative storms and I found out just how strong and how weak I really am, I was ultimately doing myself no favors.

Now I get to be in a place I love and I get to work toward doing more things that I love. This includes hiking, spending time with family, reading, writing and creating videos. Wedding videography has been on my mind for a while to start pursuing but it never felt like the right time because I was always on the move. It feels right to begin this new journey at this time in my life, knowing that I want to be still and in one place for some time. I have explored and adjusted to many places so I’m fairly certain I know what I do and do not want.

So, Washington was my home and it is still my home, and for now I am contented to stay here awhile pursuing videography.
