I am normally someone who loves changes, I think there is something really exciting about a new beginning. However, there are times when change has a way of causing doubt, pain, and trials. Here I am, a sixteen year old girl, finishing up her sophomore year in high school, looking back over all the changes. The people who seemed to be the ones that were always going to be there, failed to. The friends I love dearly, I have seen fall to their knees, but the beauty in it was seeing them get back up. The past few weeks I have been thinking a lot about the future, and how much I have learned in the past. I was having a conversation with my boyfriend last night that really got me thinking. We began to talk about wishing that we had a time machine and if we could only go back and change things or how we could keep the moments perfect. Then we both realized, how the moments of our past do define the people we become, and at the end of the day all the bluster and B.S only make us the person we were meant to be. Its funny, He mentioned to me that he wished the school he attends was never created, and I simply replied "but you wouldn't have met me" the look on his face was priceless, and he was amazed at how the past lead him to me. It was clear to me then that if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up the rain. As much as I love change, and as much as I wish I could change things, I realize that there are some things in life we just shouldn't change. Maybe the beauty in the alter, is all about letting the changes just happen and learning to embrace it as it comes.
