Recent Challenges

"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."
