Quote (for life)

All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another. ~Anatole France

This is true for me... I've noticed that even when things are changing and i'm really HAPPY about it I will have some moments of sadness for the 'me' and the 'life' that i've left behind in that change!!! (a good example of this would be the melancholy i felt when I was getting married and realized last summer would be the LAST time i would be with my family and just have it be ME and them... I realized that getting married would change everything --and it has. I would never CHANGE it, but it is a bit sad to think back to the summers i used to spend at home with my family and realize that will never happen just like that again).

Life is about change, though! And this is something we must have the patience to endure. I'm so thankful for everything in my life --God has blessed me greatly!
