looking back....
i remember being a little kid and always looking forward to long lazy summers of laying on the couch and watching tv and going swimming. summer used to be so relaxing and as a kid it was the one thing we counted down to ever year.
this summer however was a little different. it has been filled with stress beyond belief and a lot of traveling. i was looking forward to my internship this summer but as you all know i wanted to kill myself(not literally so please dont call any suicide hotlines) because i learned that its hard in the real world. it kinda makes me sad thinking that thats all we have to look forward to when we are done with college. by the end of the internship i learned to like it because i learned how to balance personal life with work.
i also learned what its like to have friends that dont live down the street. yea with modern technology i can call them but its not the same as talking with them face to face. its hard to be there for someone when they hurt when they are 1000 miles away or 10000 miles away.
i think i have definately grown up a lot this summer. sometimes i want to go back to those long lazy summer days but i see that those were past and now its time to move on with my life. i am looking forward to this year to see what God has in store for me.
