I feel like I balance my time more honestly, and effectively than I did a few months ago. My trip this summer didn't really change me like I expected, I was, in ways, restrained; acting as I usually do. I was irritable and angry at times, but I am yearning for more travel. I need to see more and I will not stay here and work for the rest of my life. I will travel regardless of what my time spent elsewhere will entail as a result. My mom has breast cancer which is not surprising and she takes it well. She manages to compose herself joyfully in my presence. I know she acts differently when I am not around. Shes good like that. My dad has surprised me with extraordinary consideration for the situation. My moms case of cancer seems similar to my grandmas breast cancer which returned in other places years later and required quite a bit of stress I'd imagine. Henceforth! I worry that my moms spirit may suffer as a result of this. My sister visited me today and we had a good time just talking about school, work, and free time. I've been watching a lot of movies and television shows lately because my school takes up little time. I'm going to miss Hayley when she goes away for school this week and I hope we still stay in touch. Distance is nothing to fight with, and if fought will damage that which you fight for. I like to accept or forget distance when it exists. This makes a lack thereof a rewarding experience. My search for a job is going as I expect it should. So there is so much to say, but I really don't have a mind to coherently articulate my feelings right now.
