the season's change

and so will i

from JoeUser Forums
Yesterday was cold. The air would pierce your lungs with each inhale, freezing your face and numbing your hands. The ice all over the side walk was simply calling my name to take a slide on it and fall in the muck. I refrained... Walking into school that morning, with the wind in my face, and exhaust from the buses i could see and smell in the air, it finally occured to me that it is no longer Fall. I'm not slow, I knew it was Winter, I was just in denial. Iut with the snow all over the ground and the steam from my breath, I couldn't deny it anymore. 7 days until Christmas, 14 until 2006. It feels like school has just started, when it's really almost half over. I'm that much closer to graduating. to moving away from home, and creating a home of my own... and i am absolutely terrified. I know, I still have a year and a half, but when i look back at the past 3 years, they've gone by so fast, and become such a blur, that I can't help but think that this year will fly by faster than ever. The seasons' changing simply shows me that time is still in motion, and I will soon be too. Sometimes I find myself wishing I was back in time. Back when the sun shone warm on my skin, and the water from the ocean lapped at my feet. However, you can't go back in time. There is no turning back. Wishing for things to stay the same will keep me from experiencing other equally wonderful things. So rather than crying for Fall and Summer, I should look forward to Spring. No matter where life takes me, God will be with me, and I know anything will be amazing if I follow His leading. Whatever college I attend, whoever I meet, wherever I go, I'll be fine. It's better to just take each day one at a time, anyway. God will take care of the details.

((((((((((((((((((J)))))))))))))))))))))))))) I'm so proud of you. How can you be my baby and yet be so grown up?? When did that happen?

I love you. I know that whatever decisions the future holds for you, you are going to find yourself in the midst of this amazing incredible life... and you will be a godly woman who gives her all for Him. I'm so proud of you and so thankful that you're mine. I have no idea how I got so blessed as to end up with a child who is so "there"... so together... so on fire for God... so beautiful... so intelligent... so enchanting... so... so...

You get it. I love you!

HC, she is a great gal!  But you need to sign out as her, and in as yourself.

Hey Ruby,

Yes I remember those times being a teen not really wanting to jump into adulthood too fast realizing that life was about to change in the way that I knew it but not quite ready to venture out. For me change was hard....still is. But you are going to have a blast in college. I just know you are going to blossom and learn so much and be such a benefit to the world around you!! You'll do more than fine.

It'll be fun going to college with you (well in a way)and hearing all the great stories you'll have for us like David does now.......

(((((((((R))))))))

I remember you said it was a sin for me not to say goodbye to you.....so just making sure....bye!!

Dont worry, and keep posting.  And as Shovelheat noted, just post thoughts and stuff, not personal info!  Your mother is a great lady.  Like mother like daughter!

Now, can you or your mother send us down south a White Christmas?   Waaah!  We are supposed to get rain - again!

I did not think your daughter was narcistic.  And that little red button next to your name in the upper left hand corner?  Just click that.  It will log you out.

I forget how much time you spend here. *smiles* You must have seen her post to my articles before.

As an anon.  Yes.  My job is 20% crises, and 80% boring! But I still love it.

So when she joined, I figured she was your daughter, but a very strong and rational one that did not go around hugging herself.  

Aint I a stinker!
