A man with dark hair and a beard sits at a table with a chocolate birthday cake topped with candles and sparklers. He holds a glass of amber liquid and looks down with a slight smile, reflecting on his 34th birthday.

Officially 34 years old, I celebrate this year remembering the decisions I made to choose God, the countless times I have sat alone at restaurants, have had few friends, have worked in silence to invest in my career. I have lived a lifetime of shrinking myself around those I do not respect in order to have community and these pat few years I realized I love and respect myself too much to dim myself anymore. To the 420 full moons that have passed over my life. To what I will create, to what I will build, to my bright future and all the love I wish to spread to the world. Watch out 😉
