Realization

Well, it’s been years since I first wrote my post, things in life don’t always go the way you want them to. So as life smacks me around I struggled to come up with a post or even the enthusiasm to write, I turned to look at what has been going on in my life lately and I wanted to share something with you.
Recently I was able to get back in contact with a friend that has been ghost for years; we messaged each other for hours and caught up on all the things we missed out on in each other’s lives. The thing is when you have a friend like her you never really grow apart, sometimes you take a break but once you see each other again it’s like you never left each other’s side. I am very fortunate to have her in my life even if it’s not all of the time. She reminded me during our conversation about the love I had for reading during my adolescent years and I almost forgot about how great a good book could be. So as we giggled and gossiped about books and authors that we love, I realized I forgot a major part of who I am. So my world has expanded again to include my love of books and writing, it’s always been something that I have loved to do. When I was younger I always wanted to write my own book, with several failed attempts and dropping Journalism as my major at college, I found myself slowing creeping towards another path, one that others might consider more suitable as a career. Although I did sway from writing it will always be a part of me no matter how old I get or how far away from it I go.
So to my beloved friend I want to say thank you for opening my eyes again, and being such a great friend. You are the best!
