The FUTURE

The unknown. It seems as though we go through life looking forward to the next milestone: graduation, college, marriage, kids, etc. It's kind of scary once you reach one of these milestones, because you've spent so many years imagining what life will be like once you reach it and now that it's here you can't help but wonder, "what's next?"

I've been thinking about the future a lot lately. I used to have my entire life planned out, but life has a way of changing things; things that were once priorities aren't even a factor anymore. For someone who likes to be in control, it's a terrifying thing. As per usual, One Tree Hill saves the day by saying,"You're way too young not to believe it's gonna be okay."

I realize I am only 19 and have so much life ahead of me. Sometimes it's easy to find yourself dwelling on what lies ahead. As much control as we think we have of our futures, it can change in an instant. Although I'm not sure what the future holds I'm sure it'll all work out. After all, I'm too young not to believe it's gonna be okay.
