Looking Back

Almost everyone I'm friends with has posted their Facebook video this week - you know, the video looking back at the past however many years you've been on there - since it's the 10-year anniversary of Facebook.

My video was not all that indicative of my life over the past seven years. That's how long I've been on Facebook... and a lot has happened in those seven years. My video consisted of pretty much all pictures of my sister, husband, and dogs. There was one of one of my best friends, two of me with other people. If you watched it, you probably wouldn't even know who I am. Anyway, I've been thinking about how much I've been through in the last seven years (even 10, even though that wasn't part of my Facebook life).

In 2006, I was in college, finishing up at Temple. I've worked six jobs in almost as many years, and had a lot of unemployment in there as well. I got married, got a dog, bought a house, got another dog... we've had parties, made new friends, spent time with old friends and family... it's a lot of stuff to cram in to just a few years, but it's been pretty amazing.

All in all, I feel like I'm at a really good place in my life. I have a lot to be happy about, and even though I'm not always happy, at least I know that.
