On changes

These past few months have been a whirlwind of changes for me. I’ve moved into a completely new city, taken in new sights, worked on new projects, interacted with new people, and am completely, and utterly alone. On this endeavor to “find myself”, I’ve come to the great Big Apple. The City that Never Sleeps. And thus, to be here, I’ve left the friends I’ve known for four years, I’ve left the city that’s shaped me into the person I’ve become to today, and I’ve left the single most important person in my life. 

When I think about Change, I know that it’s never forever. Change isn’t meant to be forever, and that’s what comforts me about it. Soon, in a short while, Change will become a routine. It’ll become a constant, a familiar road. And I guess that’s why people crave this type of change. Because in the midst of it all, is chaos, confusion, and excitement. These highs make us think that we’re doing something right, something big and notable- something real. And when we’ve gotten enough of it, we are quick to fall back into the warm arms of familiarity.

And so, maybe we are doing something real. Maybe we aren’t.

I’d for sure, though, would like to think I am.
