She moves at a time so critical...

Do you know when I feel most alive? It's during the winter when I'm driving in my car with the windows down, heat on, and music turned up really loud. I don't know if I ever told anyone that. I remember freshman year. Amie's OLD car. Taking the roof off (not sure what kind of car it was that had a removable roof lol). Driving around Capital Circle. Getting lost and ending up in Georgia. Cold outside. Heater on. Music blaring. And we really were ALIVE. It's as if time stood still. Nothing mattered but that feeling. And the lyrics from the songs. Songs that conveyed perfectly my innermost fears and desires. I will never forget that night. And as long as there's breath in me, I will ALWAYS appreciate those winter nights when I get to go back. Back to a time before life got so crazy. Before I made all of my mistakes. Before I lost myself. Before I lost so many of the people that I love.

Life goes on. And the past continues to shape the person that I've become. The person that I am looking forward to becoming in the future.
