A lesson learned is...
So much goes on from day to day that I don't even know how to update. I've gotten pretty bad about it. I don't know if I've journaled seriously about my London trip yet.
My flight leaves on September 7th. Am I ready? I could probably pack in a couple of hours. Emotionally I'm not sure that moving has even registered with me yet. I keep telling people that I'm really excited, but the truth is that I just don't feel anything yet. I'm waiting for it to actually hit me, at that point I'm pretty sure I'm going to try and back out. It usually takes me so long to get to know people that moving to a completely different continent is just berserk. I'm sure it's going to be the greatest time of my life though.
Thursday my brother, Adam, and I went to Mississippi with our dad to visit our grandparents before we leave the country. They were excited to see us, and I can honestly say that I loved visiting them this time. Usually there's so much strain on everyone because we don't always have things to talk about with my aunt and uncle and cousins, but this trip was different and I was grateful. We all had a good time.
I love this period of growth that I'm going through. It's always good to stretch out and see how much you've grown and strengthened. This summer I feel like I've grown leaps and bounds. I'm closer to being the person that I've always felt like I had the potential to be, but I was never quite sure I could actually become. Here I am. I'll always have to strive to become a little bit closer, but I'm taking who I am and growing and using my hurts and successes to become something. That's how it goes.
I've been listening to Pat Green and Marc Broussard a lot lately. Just thought I would throw that in there.
