Perspective

This is your life, is it everything you dreamed that it would be

When the world was younger and you had everything to lose ?

Switchfoot

Yes.

Four years ago I was a high school senior dreaming of independence; of making it on my own far away from my family in a different culture - a different state. I dreamed of going to Eurospring and becoming involved with student government. I wanted to make friends and leave college with a mind that was more open than it was when I began.

I wanted to spend a summer in a big city - I did.

I wanted to spend a summer here in Bemidji - I did.

I wanted to learn how to play guitar - I did.

All while completing two majors and a minor with a GPA I'm satisfied with. I've made a home here. This is everything I dreamed - and then some. While I struggle with the thought of being here for another year, I take comfort in knowing that this is what I wanted and I made it happen.

Time to goal set for the next phase of my life... :)
