What They Don't Tell You

You see, you graduate from highschool and everyone is so proud and for a moment, you feel like you could reach for the stars. Then all of a sudden, you start to feel a wave of loneliness hit you like a truck. I don't know if that is just the feeling of getting kicked out into the world with what it seems to feel like no experience at all, but it is far from pleasant. Everything is just far from normal for awhile, and  I do understand that getting use to it is essential, but does it ever feel normal again?  The answer is, yes. There will be times in your life where you feel like a different person each time you go through a new phase. There will be times where you feel lonely, or feel like you are way out of your comfort zone, but you have to get up each morning and get through it. Find something that you are passionate about, build up your passion and work on it each day. Tell your loved ones exactly how much you love them and how thankful you are for them. Life is going to get hard, but you have to keep pushing through it and be happy.
      As I start on my new journey to college, I hope to keep this mindset and keep pushing through the hard times that I know I will inevitably face.
