Change never used to scare me as much as it does now. I believe a lot of is because you spend the first 18-19 years of your life depending on your family and once your out of high school or turning 20 or 21(for those who do not move into a dorm) you are on your own. I worry a lot about the future, school, finding a job, and all of these are what we deal with once we grow up and it's scary or life changing.
Those of you who are in high school right now, enjoy it, do not wish to be 18 or 21 because you cannot go back. You cannot get back those years once they are gone, enjoy life now. Do not live for the future, you can look forward to it, but if you are so focus for what "may" happen you cannot live in the present. It's truly amazing how life changes in a few minutes, hours or even a day.
My ending note is this: love life, love your family and friends, because you never know when the next blink of an eye it all could be gone. I'm not trying to scare anyone, but it is true.
The picture I posted with this was when I was in Tennessee. This picture reminds me to relax and takes me back to that moment the picture was take.
