In the last couple of weeks of my summer, I stayed around only the ones I love the most. I've seen how important it is to surround yourself with genuinely good people, and now I only want to spend my time with the people that care about me as much as I care about them. 

I did my best, in the month I turned eighteen, to capture my favorite moments, the kind of moments that remind me why I love living. The moments that inspire me, reminding me how we all connect with each other and the world around us, as well as the overall magic of the season.
