Thanks for sharing your heart. I loved...Wow Rachel! Thanks for sharing your heart. I loved how you spoke to what I think a lot of us experience as we make these life changes. When you talked about not liking that your family was moving on without you being there - well I know I've felt that way too. I'm sure a lot of us have. It's hard sometimes to realize all the lives we will live in our time here. Emily Freeman is talking about that today at (in)courage. Check it out at http://www.incourage.me/<br />The memories we create in one chapter mold us into what we need for the next. New jobs, new relationships, the next move, new friends, marriage, children, and on and on. I think it's only human to long for the past at times, but oh how exciting these new chapters can be.<br />Again, thanks for sharing!Holly Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11570098654383459592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615845471865735327.post-36341533452548324052012-01-13T12:14:49.118-05:002012-01-13T12:14:49.118-05:00I also need to add this; I will never forget what ...I also need to add this; I will never forget what my mother told me before I took off for college. I was so pumped about going to college. I just could not wait to leave home. My mother had told me that once you leave for college, you will never live in this home, fully anymore. I remember looking at her and thought to myself, "never again?" That scared me a little. Then after two months being away at college, my parents would talk with me via IM (before videophones were created). They would talk about things they did there and there. I remember thinking I am not there to be with them. I am not there to enjoy pizza nights with them. I am not there to enjoy a cookout with them. I cried by myself in my room. I just did not like how they were moving on without me being there. But with that being said, it made me to think about things in life in general. It has been a ride. If I miss my family that so much, I will just drive home for a long weekend. I cherish them more than I ever did before.Rachel Nicolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03969188078777880609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615845471865735327.post-47100797857795372362012-01-13T11:58:45.327-05:002012-01-13T11:58:45.327-05:00I have been in the same boat. When I move to new ...I have been in the same boat. When I move to new place and not knowing anyone, it is difficult for me. I get lonely and I hated it. As a social butterfly, I still do struggle stepping out of my comfort zone when it comes to meeting other people or going to places, alone. I do not like sit in a resturant by myself. I want someone to be with me, be able to go places with me.Rachel Nicolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03969188078777880609noreply@blogger.com
