It's been a very long time since I last was here. Unbelievable, really, the amount of goodness that has entered my life since last year. I left for college last August and I guess you could say that's really when my life began. Being on my own, without my friends or family, was a blessing and a curse. I was terrified the first few weeks; I have a difficult time relating striking up conversations with those of my own age. I have grown so much in the span of one simple year! I am finally, finally, happy. My boyfriend of three months, though regrettably living eight hours away from me, is the center of my universe and I am grateful to have him, as well as my friends both old and new. They keep me strong and for that I am eternally in their debt. To be saved, both literally and metaphorically, is not something that you can just say "Thank you" to and move on. No, it takes a lifetime to repay such a debt. I appreciate all of life's little gifts and love more than anyone will ever know. That is how I give back and the advice that I wish to spread: love, everyday, and be happy. Life will return the favor. <3
