School starts soon, and students everywhere are either homesick, restless, or depressed because the break has ended for them.
Yup, we are officially entering the "school-starts-again" blues part of the year. I know you'll all hate me for this, but I have to say really quickly that if you pine too much for the future or what's just ended you'll miss the beautiful things that are happening in the present.
I've posted this quote recently but it seems fitting today:
"One day at a time--this is enough. Do not look back and grieve over the past for it is gone; and do not be troubled about the future, for it has not yet come. Live in the present, and make it so beautiful it will be worth remembering." ~Ida Scott Taylor
Just remember that soon it's going to be just as before. It's the getting back into the swing of things that sucks.
I know. I'm right there with you.
Remember that the sun rises and sets every day and puts on a beautiful show; and when the sky is clear, around here you can see ALL of the stars.
that's what gets me through the hard days.
If it all gets to be too much this semester go for a walk and look up.
That's all you need to remember.
Until next time,
Avery
That is a very wise reading. I think you should do a call for articles to include other people's stories.
