When I was younger I'd play dress up and dream of my own fairytales. I would read the same book over and over again, knowing exactly what would come next. I had that one pen with six colors, and tried to push all the buttons at once. I would wait behind a door to scare someone, knowing I wasn't actually scary. I would fake being asleep so my Dad would carry me to bed. Remember when we were kids and couldn't wait to grow up? Now that day is upon me. Graduation. College. Real life. Where did the time go? Weren't we all just starting kindergarten yesterday? One day soon, I will be walking across the graduation stage and saying goodbye to my childhood. Am I ready for what this year holds? I'm not so sure. Too much of my time was spent wishing for the next day or next big moment instead of finding joy in the mundane. Life is too short to wish away. One day we will realize how important each and every day is. Through the good and the bad, we are blessed with this beautiful life given to us by God.
