A part of growing up is breaking free from old experiences and creating new ones.
Moving to a new city? Check. Las Vegas.
New job? Check. First year teaching. And there’s many Pros and Cons…
Challenges? Being a soccer coach, without knowing anything about soccer.
New Friends? Check. Makes me not want to get attached of course if I eventually move back to California.
New Experiences? Today I did my first 5k, a casual ColorRun, which was fun!
Today’s song is my absolute FAVORITE song from Run River North, capturing the beauty of growing up and appreciating the world around you.
There’s a fight to be won
For the love you find at home.
Work to be done
Before you rest your weary bones.I’m finding peace don’t come
To everyone I know,
So I will love in this life
Until I finally have to go….I used to close my eyes
To what stirred under my bed,
Now they’re open wide
To the monsters in my bed….Growing up child
Is just a matter of time,
For giving all you’ve got,
So won’t you dance under the sun.Growing old
Feels like you’re giving up your soul.
I’d rather give it freely
To the ones that I call home.
