Leaving: Once Again

I left for college for the first time in August. This meant leaving my life behind. Everything i knew and everyone i cared about, and even those i didn't. But, i have made new friends and kept up with several of the old. Then i came home for Christmas break.

Coming home was probably the hardest thing for. I was very excited to see several people i had left. Two of which were Autumn Sellers and Shelby Lawson. These two people are basically my sisters, only not really. It was wonderful to see them again. I love them with my whole heart. Leaving is ridiculously hard for me, making coming home even harder. I knew when i came home i would have to say goodbye again. That is really hard to do to people that you love. I did not let that ruin my time here but make it better, once again making it harder to leave. To make it worse, I know that i will have to keep doing this at least 7 times but probably more. I do keep up with them when i am away, but it just isn't the same as being there for them. I have to be over 700 miles away for them. I still feel the same, as do they, but something is lost in distance. This brings me to a most curious thing. Distance makes the heart grow fonder...but out of sight, out of mind. Both are so true, and so painful, but i deal and so do they.

I love you Autumn and Shelby
