How people come and go. Opportunities come to pass. How we grow from the chances and risks we take. And then...ever so suddenly, we are ready to move on. Take another giant leap and only hope for the best...
I lie here, on MY couch, in MY apartment, realizing these are the last two months I will actually live in a place I have wanted to live in since I started visiting my aunt out here. Mission: Accomplished. A dream to check off my list. And from it, a realization of never wanting to live too far from home again. Venture? Yes! I plan on vacations abroad in the near future. But, for a brief moment in time, I truly believed I could bring and settle my heart in the desert. However, obviously not so. My heart, my future dreams, my aspirations lie ahead in Philadelphia. Close to family, close to friends, close to home.
I can't help but think that my past has been brought back into my life to help me make my decision in moving back. The past wasn't meant to work out - that's why it's the past. I am thankful, though, for what it has made me realize. It is time to move on.
So, again...here I lie. Thankful for my past. Hopeful for my future. And looking forward to the steps I will be taking all too soon - paving my own path of success, adventure, happiness, and love. Here's to uncertainty...here's to life :)

Thanks, Mr. Gretzky - I am willing to miss, but only if I give it my all and am able to walk away saying so!
