The First

And it starts. This is the new journal I shall keep as a testament to my struggles and celebrations until I should stumble upon some new and clear cut chapter of life. The College Years were great and I lost, gained, and learned a great deal, but I'm ready for this. I'm ready to face what it is life has to offer.

It's still so dry outside. There have been so many fires around town, big fires. I pray for rain, sure. I want it to rain real bad, but I know there are people out there who want it to rain even more than I do.

I just finished sewing some of my Halloween costume tonight. I'm going to be Link from the Nintendo series. It's hard to sew and I lack the patience, but I'll get there. I do have the determination.

Work is going well, but sometimes I do wonder if this is where I need to be. I long for distant places, but I stay seated in my given situation. I'll go where I need to go when those doors are opened. What I do know is that this company will take care of me, and if I were to get married, they would take care of my family too. That is comforting.

Well, I need to sleep. I'll try and elaborate more on the present some other time.

Peace and love.
