These past few weeks have allowed me the time to sit back and think - where am I going from here? Why am I persueing this path? What is important to me, and what is worth fighting for?
While I may not have all the answers, I still think time for reflection is important. The truth is, I don't know why I'm on this path - in Gainesville, studying English, slowly turning into what my mother calls a hippie, and consuming an unhealthy amount of Hyppo popsicles and Midnight Cookies. I used to love literature, and then the anxiety of university left Dante sitting on my desk and me avoiding it like the plague.
I guess it doesn't matter what I am doing or why I am doing it. What does matter is taking the times to appreciate the little things, like enjoying the last few rays of light in my hammock by a creek, the temperature perfect, the cicadas singing me their hopes, the mosquitos surprisingly at bay, and my thoughts reminding me that I am enough. I am just right.
