change

Everyday something changes...sometimes in a good way and sometimes in a tough way. Change is not always easy, however sometimes it is best.
So far, 2009 has been a year of change for me. Small and big.

One change is my address. I know I have posted on the topic before, but this change has been very difficult for me (and my family.) I am still trying to adjust...I am trying to get used to writing down my new address and new telephone number. I am trying to get those last two boxes unpacked that are still sitting in my closet. It is very hard. It makes it real... Passing my old neighborhood, and not turning into it.... Simple little things. Change is hard. My sister and I went to my old house for the last time, we walked around, and suddenly all the memories just came back into mind. Seeing our home completely empty and realizing that that was it. We left with tears in our eyes...trying to stay strong for one another. This change hasn't been easy. But we have made it this far, I know in the end that it will all be ok.

Another change is the new President of the United States, Barack Obama. I may not be his biggest fan....and I will not go buy a t-shirt with his face on it. But, I will respect him as the leader of our country. I will pray so hard that he makes the best possible decisions for the United States of America. I will pray for his wife, and his daughters as I am certain being in the spotlight constantly is not easy. I will hope that this "change" he speaks about will help us in the long run. That is the other big change...

An exciting change: a new semester begins tomorrow. I am taking classes that I feel certain I will enjoy. I am ready for this change. I am excited for what this semester holds....the things I will learn, etc....

I could go on and on about things that have changed...or things that are in the process of changing, but I will leave it at that. Change is tough sometimes, but we get through it, and thats all we can ask for.
