Okay everyone knows that I am growing up and "getting old" to which one very confused child responded "it doesn't look like it. "
It was with said children that I realized how incredibly close my real life adulthood was. It hit me as I was bouncing a ball and talking about sick baby dolls that I am graduating from college in three weeks from yesterday. I don't think I can convey to you the excitement and finality of this epiphany. My mom told me today that upon graduation I will be one of only a handful of women in my family to receive their bachelors degree.
The opportunities of my real life are endless. And that's exactly what it is: my real life. Once I graduate real life starts. I'll most likely move out of my parents' basement, get a job and begin the phenomenon of paying my own bills.
I'm not exactly sure why it only hit me tonight, and to be honest, the feeling of epiphany has kind of died down again, but still, it's just interesting. The future is bright and I'm walking boldly, confidently into it with the guidance of my Lord. We'll see what happens. I'll keep you posted. =)
