Why is it that sometimes the good things seem to disappear the fastest? Dates, dances, an amazing meal, a fantastic talk with a close friend...they are gone as soon as they begin. I feel like I am constantly trying to cling to these memories. The ocean tide comes in and goes out every single day. My precious moments are when the tide comes in, but, just like the tide always recedes at the end of the day, so do my memories, without fail. I have learned that it is good to remember these sweet memories, but don't live in the past. Don't try to stop the tide from completing its natural cycle. Simply look to the next day with hope, determination, and excitement. I am so excited to welcome new opportunities as I go throughout the next 4 years of my college experience. I had some fantastic high-school experiences, but it is time to let go of some of them. My life is about to take an exciting new route. So, as far as I am concerned, there WILL be new, beautiful tides every single day that I will welcome and let go. My past will be a blessing that I won't live in (just maybe glance back on for guidance every once in a while), and my future will be something to look forward to. Meanwhile, I will just enjoy the tide while it is here. :)
