Hey everybody! I hope that the Christmas season treated everyone kindly and that you all are ready to transition into 2021 with a refreshed heart and an optimistic outlook on life.
I am happy to say that I just moved onto campus, and with that comes so many joys and long-awaited experiences. I look forward to sharing all of the many beautiful encounters that I will be apart of in the coming weeks and months. As for this post, however, I am grateful to be sharing my favorite aspect of winter break.
Through the necessities of our social distancing world, the amount of time that I could spend with many of my friends was limited, and yet the joy held in each time we did get together was wonderful. One exciting tradition made up over the course of the break was meeting up with my best friend for Mass and dinner every Saturday night. The sense of normalcy that came from these moments

and the laughter that filled every individual time spent allowed me to reflect on the gratitude all of us can hold for each moment. I am praying that we can all remember, through the ups and downs that are bound to face us in this upcoming semester, that the present moment is a gift.
