Summer Recap
So this summer has been an interesting one to say the least. It still makes me laugh, in that bittersweet kind of way of course, to see how much things can change in such little time. This summer was a summer of change, of moving on, of starting new, and of course just a touch of growing up thrown in there... of course there's many times I find myself acting like a complete two year old and loving every minute of it!
I discovered how good it can feel to finally let go of something that is really just not good for you anymore. Sometime it's hard to see that. It feels unbelievable to just be able to smile and laugh again. No guilty feeling in the pit of my stomach. It feels so good to just be able to be myself completely unrestricted without waiting for the shoe to drop and have the next big fight or battle come into play. In the end I feel like we'll both end up happier this way.
I've also made some awesome new friends this summer, bonded closer with old ones, and drifted away from some others. This made me sad a little bit, the drifting away part that is. But I suppose that we all do grow up and find different things. I can't be sad about somethings when everyone is happy with who they are and how they are, that doesn't quite seem fair. All we ever wanted for each other was to be happy and enjoy life. So if we all have that, together or apart, who am I to complain. With time, patience, and some love that will always linger, maybe we can find our way back, but if not, know that I wish you the best and have you in my thoughts from time to time.
Then there are the moments in time when you're with people that you've known forever or just met that day, doing the simplest things and knowing somehow, that it'll all just be alright. Those are the moments I've lived for this summer. The late night Denny's trips, the nights in Mir's hot tub, One Tree Hill or Gilmore Girl nights, OC trips, boat rides, and the many sunrises that were seen from staying up all night long. Those are the moments that make me want to just freeze time and stay there forever. But things do have to move on, and in the end I'm sure that's a good things. After all how can things get even better if you're stuck in the same moment?
And somewhere between all of the chaos of coming and going and trying to figure out where to go next I found myself another reason to smile, Jason. Now I'm not getting too in depth with this, but he's just made my summer even more awesome. And the rest I'm keeping to myself. :)
So all in all, this summer has been a success to say the least. It makes me sad to leave again, but at least I know I have lots of good things to come back to. So although this summer is drawing to a close, it brings us many future ones to look forward to.
