"The day I thought I'd never get through."

I don't know what it is about writing that's so comforting. It's always been that way, even when I was too young to really make complete sense of what I was doing. There wasn't really a time when I didn't have a notebook or something with me (I usually chose to write in pink ink on the wide-ruled pages of a Lisa Frank notebook but that's all par for the course) and I wasn't scribbling down lines of thought. And I didn't really know what I was doing, what I was starting, but that's okay. Because we don't always have to know the absolute, complete answer to everything. It's okay to just see what happens and keep on moving on. Ultimately, that's where we'll find the answers we're looking for - in the future. There are clues and indicators in the past, but the future always holds the truth.

I think I'm looking forward to the future now. Really and truly looking forward to it. I'm scared in some ways, worried about my mind and most of all my heart, but I don't really think there's anything I can't get through. And that feeling is kind of amazing. I hope that I keep holding onto it.
