“The most beautiful moments always seemed to accelerate and slip beyond one’s grasp just when you want to hold onto them for as long as possible.” I will play my final performance as Tony on December 31st. The words feel surreal as I type them, but still, I am brimming with so much pride, joy, and happiness that this show and these people have given me. Truly a life’s worth of knowledge, memories, and moments that I will cherish for all the days to come. ❤️
I’ve been either speechless, or found the words pouring out perpetually. I wasn’t so concerned that I couldn’t do it, but rather, questioned if I was worthy. Still, I tucked the thoughts away to the corners of my mind and said this was for me, for creativity, for fun. What a night. What an adventure. To those who were involved, to those who came — thank you. I feel indebted to you. Truly, my cup runneth over ♥️🥰🥹🤗💗
I’m still not sure if I enjoy birthdays, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t look forward to the day in some regard — because it’s an excuse to reconnect me with loved ones where time has slipped between us; where our ships have crossed and drifted a little too far apart.
It also acts as a refresher for those that are currently in my corner - where we quietly root for each other, share glances and smiles and laughter and make memories. I carry all of it with such fondness, and the older I get the more I realize that those are the things that really matter.
And although I spent this birthday alone, not a second went by where I felt lonely. Contrarily, I felt the warmth of love and friendship, and gratitude to know such beautiful people. One lucky guy indeed. ♥️
love,
J
PS And spent in CABO?!?! I mean c’mon how dreamyyyyy
Foolish of me to forget my own 2 year anniversary in the Big 🍎 - but nevertheless, here I am with gratitude beaming.
Grounded, humbled, and perpetually on a path of self discovery. Cheers to the ones in the orbit of my little life - to the ones that have came, the ones who have stayed, and the ones who have simply passed by - you have shaped me, healed me, and made me a better human.
Much, MUCH love. MUAH MUAH MUAHHHHH ♥️💋
you know what they say: better late than never, eh?

thankful, thankful, thankful — for family, for friends, for the soft things. the quiet moments, the ones that stay, the small but steady growth — thankful for it all 💛
