Short Thoughts for Now


Going to college is frightening, but there are more frightening things in the world.

Growing up is exhilarating, but there are things we can miss on the way.

Finding our future is imperative, but we can’t forget to be present in the now,

Because none of us will ever be able to return to these people or this very day.
