25 years ago today, at this very hour (1230), I was just over six hours old.
In that 25 years, a lot has happened. 25 years. It's a whole quarter of a century.
The last year of my life has been quite the upheaval. I decided that I wasn't happy where I was (academically speaking). I dropped out of school. I changed my life goals. I nannied for a semester. I moved 2/3 of the way across the country. I made new friends, settled into a new educational atmosphere, took care of my grandparents, adjusted to a different culture, lost both grandfathers, made life decisions impacting my immediate (and possibly long-term) future. I've smiled, cried, laughed, shouted, slept and dreamed and made mistakes. I've grown. Perhaps not as much as I should have, or could have, but I know that I'm a better person today than I was one year ago, and that's something.
Here's hoping the next year is better than the last.
We have been going through a lot of the same things in the past year! We have both also learned a lot and (I think) changed for the better. Happy Birthday!!!!
