Transition

Transition

/tranˈziSH(ə)n/

n. the process or period of changing from one state or condition to another

From time to time we are called to transition from one point of life into another. This time can be scary and terrifying, but it can also be rewarding and fulfilling. Although a time of transition is a part of every person's life, it can be incredibly difficult to take that first leap of faith. 

I am currently experiencing a time of transition. I have finished my undergraduate degree as well as a few internships in Tallahassee, Florida. I am now transitioning to graduate school and a part time job in Athens, Georgia. 

I always have said that I liked change and excitement, but I'm starting to think that it's not true. The more I think about picking up and starting over, the more apprehension I feel. What if I don't like my new city, school, or job? What if I miss my friends or family? What if I fail?

A wise man once said (and by wise man I mean the children's show legend, Mr. Rogers), "Often when you think you're at the end of something, you're at the beginning of something else." I've decided to think positively and look forward to that something else. 

"Often when you think you're at the end of something, you're at the beginning of something else."

I've decided to keep this blog in order to chronicle the hectic change that's surrounding me. Although I may change where I live, who I spend my time with, and what I spend my day doing, this blog will be a place for me to come at the end of the day and share my thoughts and concerns. I look forward to the adventure coming and where it will take me next. I also can't wait to look back and see where the changes take me.

Today I turn 21, and this blog is born. Let's see where this goes.
