Don't forget where you come from

Looking Back On Life
Bailey Ann i

Have you ever just sat and thought about your future?

Not lightly thinking about it but actually thinking and wondering what it holds and how things will change. How you will have a family and friends possibly the job you love and the house you’ve always wanted but then there is also that terrifying moment where you look back.

You look back at everything that has changed from when you were a kid. Family, siblings and now you’re grown and you look back and miss it. You miss waking up every morning and having your parents there, together, having your siblings there and just being together. You miss just having the security that everything would be there every time you came home. But that’s the only sweet thing about change. Even though we always know it’s going to happen and even though nothing can stay the same there is still that comfort that we will always have those memories and will always have those people no matter where we go.

So as things change remember everything that has changed for good.

In my life, it has been a really big change over the past few months. I have moved away from home, my job, my family and everything that I was comfortable with. I had no idea what to expect because I felt like I was losing everything and I didn’t know how to handle it.

But then I just looked around me and remembered that my life is actually pretty incredible. The people I have around me, the love of Christ and just knowing that no matter what I am loved and wanted. So never forget that even though your life Is different and things change that it is still good. There are memories that are so incredibly sweet. Treasure them and continue on.

God bless.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
