Missing it.


 Life is funny sometimes… One moment I’m fishing with my dad off of lake Michigan at 9 years old, or yelling at the top of my lungs at a Rascal Flats concert with my best friend; the first trip that we were actually “on our own”, Next thing I know it I am sitting at my desk staring at a blank computer screen thinking to myself where did the time go?  How is it I am 19 years old and I am actually “on my own”.  I thought college would be easy, coming home once every two months or so.  College means growing up, even when all I really want to do is hold on to the moments where I had someone there to pick me up when I fall, or have my childhood friends to laugh with.  Well I am just going to admit it.  I miss it…but with a deep breath I know growing up is a part of life.  Making new friends, accepting failure, and finding someone who is going to be by my side forever.  These are things that scare me…at the same time they make me anxious for the rest of my life to start.  Instead of focusing on the past, I am dealing with my now.  Which includes a man who loves me past my flaws, my family who are always just a phone call away, and my savior who when the walls are coming down he is always there to hold me up.  Life is funny sometimes…but honestly who doesn’t love to laugh?

With a full heart,
