Let's Go!

I haven't been very good at posting lately. Come to think of it, I never have been the most reliable blogger. But today I feel the need to blog. I feel the need to be vulnerable to my friends, family and strangers who may randomly find me here, writing. I rarely allow myself to be vulnerable, especially here in front of my unseen audience.

But today I am about to embark on a journey, and I can't help feeling so old. I think I have aged 20 years in a mere matter of weeks. I have been in denial about this trip from the beginning, and now that it is here, I just want to curl up in my bed and stay there forever.

But readers, we must all face the world and I guess I would rather face it with my head held high than to have it find me hiding in my bed, hopelessly in denial about reality.

Unlike that optimistic guy, maybe we all have to climb out of the sand and save ourselves.
