How time speeds by; first it slowly drifts from our view, then it slips through our fingertips. Time does a lot of things, it can either ruin or create something. Time changes your face, your body, your mind, and even your heart. What a long way we’ve come; from childhood to adolescence, from adolescence to adulthood. I thought the day would never come where I’d be going away, moving away from home; I only imagined such things in childhood play.I’ve lost and gained friends all the same, the ones who are still with me are the ones truest and dearest to me; We’ve gone through things unimaginable in my days of childhood, I’ve learned so much from them as I hope they’ve learned from me. Just as my friends were by my side, so was my family; as I heard in a movie once, “Nothing in this life is permanent, the only thing that is permanent is family.” And it has proven to be true thus far; they have stuck with me through the good, the bad, and the worse.I’m in complete awe; I have came so far, learned so much, changed so much, I’m in disbelief; and now, the time of the year where everyone is graduating and going away from home, leaves me in shock of how far we’ve all come. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again; the stories of our lives are being written all the time, and not one of them is close to being finished yet.
