As the year begins to fade into memory and anticipation fills our minds with the thought of what's to come, I can't help but be reminiscent. I'd like to reflect and say this has been a growing year...one where I hardly recognize the me I used to claim. I see me shining through the dying haze of 2009, almost as if from a movie. I'm waving to the the person on the boat so elegantly drifting from the dock into the horizon surely to be engulfed by the embracing mist.
A third in the past, a third in the now, and the last of me heading for the future, It's strange to stand in three places. I feel my feet secured to the dock but my hair is blowing in the breeze and the sound of sails billows above my head, and between the two I'm also the distance. I'm not one to fear, but these feet seem to be sticking to 2009 in the comfort of familiarity. I have no idea what these winds bring, but I know 2010 will be one to remember. So many things, school on top of having my own house (which of course I'm sharing with wonderful friends) on top of marching again (if they'll have me) on top of more school....oh and back track to Scotland and a potential spring break in Canada, now fast forward to more school and a mile marker b-day *** dear god it has come far to soon and not soon enough at the same time.
Truth be told, I'm not sure what 2010 has in store for me but I'm along for the ride **afterall I can't fight it, the boats already set sail--no use fighting the tides.
So here's to the horizon...may we never stop chasing it and may it always remain elusive, for what's the adventuring in knowing?
