today was the perfect end of summer. dinner and a ride down pch. It was a conversation I needed to have. It was hard being honest with myself and being honest with you, but I needed to say things out loud and truly acknowledge the things that are important to me. This year has been CRAZY, but its brought me to a better place. I learned a lot and I will continue to. Thats the important part about the future, CHANGE. We are responsible for changing ourselves into the person we want to be and changing the injustices around us.

Really, I wanted to tell you something that I forgot to tell you in the car. I wanted to say I'm so proud of you. You've come so far and I don't think you realize how far you've come. I don't think you notice how much you've improved yourself and how much you are continuing to grow. It amazes me and inspires me. I love you, more than I'll ever be able to express.
