Yes, Im Going (Back) to Carolina.. in my mind!

(My 25th Bday Dinner)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
June has come and almost gone.... like the quickness of a summer day. Why is it that summer days seem to go so fast? I spent 8 days in wonderful South Carolina and it flew right on by! Although my trip was over even before it began, it really made me think about life and how fast it passes you by. In just two years, my life has drastically changed. It seems like yesterday I was running across campus, trying to make it to my next class on time. And now I am celebrating my One Year Wedding Anniversary with my wonderful husband. Driving down those Carolina roads, I started to remember how much I wanted to leave... how I was dying to get out of college and start my life. I wish I could talk to that girl and tell her to slow down... stop and look around... take in everything you are experiencing because one day you will really miss your life in this moment. As much as my trip made me realize how much I miss my Carolina, I know there is a reason life has led me down a different path... I am meant for something more. My trip down memory lane reminded me of this quote:


"All changes, even the most longed for, have a certain melancholy;for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves" -Anatole France
