"The most successful people are those who are good at plan B." ~JAMES YORKE

I may need to work a little harder on this one...

Things change. Life changes. We must learn to adjust. We must realize how to learn from our challenges.

"Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense."
~RALPH WALDO EMERSON

"Life's challenges are not supposed to paralyze you, they're supposed to help you discover who you are." ~BERNICE JOHNSON REAGON

I recently moved into a new apartment for my final year of college at Marquette University. My boyfriend, Trent, also just graduated and moved home to Atlanta, Georgia. After feeling somewhat lost, I have come to realize that this challenge, of being away from him for the next year, will give me the chance to discover who I am all over again.

I have always thought of myself as very driven. I've always known exactly what I wanted and I've worked hard to get there. With Trent's leaving, I feel as though some of those goals have been put on hold.

I am going to try to work harder to find myself again, to work on achieveing my individual goals. Though I may feel ready for the "we," I am going to try to focus more on the "me."
