It has been awhile since my last post, and I have missed it terribly. These last few months have been a time of self-discovery. It has been a time to think about my future, my dreams and where I want to go in life and in my career. Graduation is in three short months and as each day passes, I feel a little more uneasy about the future. There are so many things to think about and so many decisions to make. It is a scary time.

The unknown has always been frightening to me. I am a planner, someone who always knows where they will be in life. But, for the first time, I really have no idea where I am going. I have a “plan” and I know where I’d like to be and where I hope my dreams will lead me. But for the first time, I have no idea where my path is going to take me.

One thing I do know is that these days, the moments I’m living right now, these are the days I will remember. This is the time to take chances. It is the time for excitment and personal growth. My journey into adulthood begins now. So as much as I fear the future, I am soaking it in. I am enjoying the unknown and someday soon, I will look back on these defining moments and will laugh. These are the moments that shape my life, and shape who I will become. The future will unravel itself as each day passes. The adventure begins today, and I ‘m ready for the ride.
