So much has changed

Wow...so much has changed in my life. I've had a lot of time to think this week with my roommate gone and the appartment to myself.

If anyone was to tell me that I would be living in city, especially a state capital, when I graduated from high school. I would have done everything in my power to not let that happen. I am not a city person, at all. Never have been. But here I am, city livin. And giving it my best. Nothing has changed...im still a country boy but I am warming up to it. Slowly but surely.

I also have said I could never do another long distance relationship. They are too hard and I am not good at it. But here I am, in a long distance relationship. Its going really well though. We make it work. There are times when we think its not fair and it sucks, but we stick it out and really enjoy the moments we have together. We seem to think that the other person is worth that extra little bit it requires to date in different cities. Not to mention she's hot.

Lastly, Im finally not a college student anymore. Which I know a lot of you folks thought would never happen. But its true. I am living the life of a real adult. Thats scary and great all at the same time. I had a nice little comfort zone that I created for myself up at Clemson. All that is gone now. I am starting over in a land where nothing is given and everything is earned (except Gods grace and goodness. We could never earn that). And so far...I like this big bad scary world. Im learning a lot.

I think its good to look back everyonce in awhile. I dont think you can know the direction your heading without knowing where you started. So, here is your task. Take the time to stop and think. Go to your spot (the mountains, the boats, the car rides, the showers, the beaches, the music, the whatever it takes) and just be and let it all fall back into your mind again. All the memories and experiances, the good and the bad. And let it fill your heart and mind until you appriciate the journey you have travelled.

I dont know...that just what I like to do.
