Momentarily Back From The Dead

It's a strange thing to realize that you're leaving people that you've loved behind. It's even stranger to realize that you're ok with it. Life is made up of beginnings and endings, and where something ends, something else surely begins. Life is not meant to be stagnant. It is in human nature to grow, to develop, to progress. Maybe life isn't always what you expect it to be. Sometimes it hurts. Sometimes it stinks. But, believe it or not, there is a reason for everything. Life is not supposed to be lived in slow motion. Rather, it's fast-paced and impossible to escape. And sometimes that means living with regrets. I know that I've done things that I've regretted doing. For that matter, I've not done things that I've regretted not doing. But part of life is taking those regrets and learning from them, living with them, and doing better next time. I've changed a lot in the past few years. And while others may not like the changes that I've made, I do. I try my hardest to be the kind of person that I know I should be. All that I ask of myself is that I be the best me that I can be. I'm happy with the life I'm living. I'm excited for my future. I know great things are coming.
