High school. A mere series of mental toils and memories made with friends. For the moment, it seems to last a lifetime. When it's all over, it is only a flicker of life's adventures that have been lived but never forgotten. I sit here in realization that high school does, in fact, flutter by in the blink of an eye. It's almost over, but at the same time the year has just started. I have much to learn and much to conquer. I wait longingly and impatiently to see where I end up in the flow of life. No matter what happens, where I am, or who I am with, I know that there are the good times and the bad. High school was honestly a whole lot of bad. Seeping through those cracks are rays of good, love, positive energy and excitement. Spending four years with nearly the same people creates a bond that can be quickly broken as soon as we are out of high school. This scares me, because it can be hard to love. I have learned to love many people who may or may not be in my life in the future, and that causes me to fear. What if I don't want to let go? What if I want to stay where I am, comfortable, in the know of people and what's happening? My melancholic and phlegmatic personality want to go along with that relaxed, laid-back lifestyle where nothing really changes. Honestly, I want to go against it. I am so excited to start a new branch in my life that will extend to places as far as anyone can imagine. To meet new people and live life with them, being the best that I can be and being an image of God to them, with open arms to comfort souls. Life may not come along as we imagine, but that doesn't mean it won't be great. It's up to us to live our lives happy, well, and move forward as legendary vikings and fearless leaders. We are adventurers, seekers of journeys and battles we will victoriously overcome. Life is good, life is great, and it truly can be seen when you just take the time to look at it.
