Relief

Ever since my big decision about what to do with the rest of my life after I graduate I just feel unadulterated relief. It's quite possibly the best feeling ever. I'm already making plans and setting things up for my move back and it's a wonderful feeling. To be cliche: there's NO place like home. For reals. It will be nice to do what I want and figure some things out for myself. Plus my family won't be four states away! It's a great feeling.

Today the Gratefulness Abounds:

• Catching up with some friends who were gone for a bit.
• Reconnecting with my old voice teacher---I'm hoping it'll be a good fit after I move back.
• Trading babysitting for lessons! Yes please.
• Staying true to myself. Lots of shady stuff is going down right now and I've decided to let that slide off my back and just be myself. That's all I can do.

Tomorrow is Veteran's Day and I'm singing in a program at a senior living center. It's funny because sometimes I just lose sight of such important events and music brings these events to the forefront. Tomorrow I will be oh so grateful for all that the armed forces do for me especially in light of all that is going on in our world. One day peace will be the path chosen, I'm just sure of it. Good night all!
