It's an odd feeling, but for once, I'm actually looking forwards to the future.
For so long, I was afraid..... afraid of what could happen, afraid of leaving my family, afraid of failing, afraid of being the first of my siblings to o off to college. But now I realize.... it was all in my head. There's nothing to be afraid of. In fact, there's everything to look forwards to!
It might take a bit of work. Okay, a LOT of work. Especially in the final stretch, which is where I am. Senior year of High School. But it'll be worth it. I know that now. They make us jump through so many hoops just to make it to another school, to further our education. But instead of looking at how much work it will take, or what might go wrong.... I've finally started looking at all the possibilities the future holds. Because I don't know. I don't KNOW what could go wring, and I don't know what could go right.
But what I DO know is that I will be okay. I'm about to embark on what could possibly be the biggest, most important adventure of my life so far. I get to forge my own path in life, not just stay in the bubble that I've resided in since I was born.
And that's a scary thought.... but also an exciting one.
This was just a late-night ramble, really. A way to get my thoughts out of my head, so they don't stagnate.
But if you're scared of the future, like I was..... I hope this helps. I hope you feel a little better. Don't be afraid. Life is an adventure story, and the future is just another chapter.
