je m'en vais chercher un grand peut-etre
i am flying to california tomorrow, where i will have innumerable adventures for the next three weeks.but i am scared out of my mind. about terrorist threats and being scammed and hiking in desert national parks and driving thousands of miles by myself. i'm not telling anyone, but i'm terrified. but i'm eighteen. i've worked and saved. i love my friends and my sister and my parents (even though they make it hard.) i love college and God and most everyone i know. what i'm doing is crazy, but maybe it's right. i'll find out soon enough. maybe it will be wonderful and maybe it will be a mess. and i guess that's why life is beautiful, because i'm standing at the edge of this vast metaphorical canyon and i know i have to get to the other side but i don't know how or why, only that i must. and even though the view is beautiful from the side i'm already on, something is telling me "if you think this is amazing, wait til you see the view from the other side!" so i'm going. God bless y'all.
