I had an important realization this week. I became aware that life is coming. Very quickly, in fact. In the fashion of a large train hurtling towards me. My options? Get plastered by the oncoming wheels or try to jump on, vagabond-style. I think I'll try to jump on, but it is rather a daunting spectacle.
Where is this coming from? A few things, mainly involving taking steps towards realizing dreams that I have been holding onto for a long time as "career" dreams. I applied for a grant last week that would jumpstart my grown-up life of service, getting me started next year instead of some nebulous time post-graduation. I've also been in the process of discovering much of what has been hiding deep in my subconscious somewhere for the past couple of years, directing my thoughts and actions in relation to men and future plans, but that's entirely too deep and philosophical to address in a blag, so you can just ask me about it in person sometime.
The moral of the story: the proverbial "ships" are starting to "sail", so it is time for me to take "action" and hop on "board."
