And I'm not just talking about sunsets-- although I do love a pink-orange sky cutting through grey clouds settling in-- I love hugs and being surrounded by people I love and certificates printed on thick cardstock and "see you later"s because we don't know where our paths will lead us or if they will cross again but we know change is coming, new chapters are starting, new memories are ready to be filed away in our brains. I love endings because they are really the same thing as beginnings, and the chaos of transitioning in between is what we (perhaps unknowingly) anticipate with every shift.
I hope you enjoyed this little piece, even if it’s cheesy! Don’t mind me getting a little emotional at the end of junior year 🙂 I hope you all are having an amazing summer and/or amazing end of your school year! Please feel free to leave feedback and writing challenges in the comments. Stay safe and healthy out there.
