Hello, everyone! I am a rising senior at Hartwick College and work as a Blue Key Tour Guide. I am an Environmental Chemistry major with a minor in Environmental Science and Policy and a minor in Political Science. This summer I will be working with the EPA and Environmental Justice and I am super excited!

I am very sensitive and caring and full of joy. I love nature, the power of love, and frienship. Please feel free to ask questions, though, I will not answer anything super personal. I hope you enjoy my blog. Have a wonderful day!

 

When you recover or discover something that nourishes your soul and brings joy, care enough about yourself to make room for it in your life.

Reflection on an Old Post and New Happiness

I found the following post from a year ago. I am glad I was optimistic. I did find love again. I had a taste of it during this past school year, but that ended as many good things in life do, but it made room in my life for an even more amazing thing to come in. Tim is now my heart and soul. He is the new love in my life and I believe he will always be there. He makes me so happy and understands me so well. Right when we started talking more this summer we understood each other’s ideas about love, life, and society right away and could pretty much finish each other’s sentences and discussions about pretty much every topic. I am so amazed and so happy that I have found him. I hope to never let him go. I cannot wait to see him tomorrow :)

But then I remember just how full of love I am and I know I could never give up on it even if I wanted to. And love really is amazing and their is an abundance of family and friend love all around me. And I believe one day I will find deep love, but I just have to be patient. Love is something amazing and if it was more common, we would take it for granted and it would no longer be so special.
