I went jogging last night. It was pretty late and the streets were quiet. As I was jogging, I thought a lot about the future. I had a lot on my mind and my heart was heavy. Seemed like everyone is moving on so fast. In the blink of an eye, I am twenty. In the blink of an eye, I will be a junior. Some people are graduating and ready to move on to a different stage in their life. It seemed like yesterday when Alan, Larry, John, Kelly, and many others were leaving for college. I was very sad then because that means things would change. I felt as though the people I looked up to were leaving us behind. The next thing I know, a year has past and I was ready to leave for college also. I remember it was hard to decide which school I should attend. In the end, I choose MSU. Me, Cassie, Joyce, and Jon went in together not knowing what the future holds. There, God allowed us to joined up with Christy, Rachelle, Jared, and John to form a Christian group to support each other spiritually. It was amazing how gracious he was to us by answering all our prayers and needs. This year, I was so delighted to have Lindsey, Sewa, and Arthur join the big family at State. It really is a big family because we had our share of fun times as well as growing times together. One year has flew by for them and two for the rest of us. Now, some of the people we grew up with are about to enter into a different stage in their life. Some will move to Chicago, some to California. Some choose to go to China for a year or so. I don't think it will be long before many of them are planning their weddings. Again, I can't help but feel like I a step slower. When will it be my turn? It seems like everytime I think I am on the same page, I am not. I love college and I would like to enjoy it as much as possible. At the same time, I can't wait for my turn to go.....go where? I do not know. Maybe sunny California....maybe New York. I will go where God gave me reasons to go.
