Change Comes As Quick As Light.


Have you ever realized how quickly things can change? Sure there's a certain extent of progress that happens, but sometimes a life can change within the speed of light. It's actually quite fascinating. I think about all that has happened in the 24 years that I've been around & the changes that have taken place in those years seem endless. I've seen shifts in the way I act, dress, think, and speak. I've had friends come and go (more than I'd like to even admit). I've experienced the unfortunate heartache that came from losing loved ones to death. My interests, priorities, and goals have changed along with everything else that refuses to stay a constant. With all of life's adjustments, I've realized that it eventually stops hurting. It doesn't hurt anymore to have friends walk out of my life. It's okay to accept who I'm turning into, despite what anyone else says. Change is inevitable. Why not embrace it? The fact is, life is too short to be consumed with concern for all of life's twists and turns. At the end of my life, I want to be able to run towards the light with no regrets. I want people to have the ability to think about me and know that change is only the beginning of something great.
