The Beginning and the End

It was over. and yet it had just begun. I had been so scared. I miss them. Time moved too fast. Ten years went by in a moment. We made it. We flipped the page and started a new chapter. I feel different. Older, more mature. I was only twelve, but I felt like I aged a year in a minute. The minute that changed everything.

Promises were made. If we went through with it, a new house. A dog. Our grandparents. I learned so much. I learned that change is a good thing, even if you don't see it at first. Tears can free you. There are more good people out there, waiting to meet you and be your friend. You can change a life. Make a difference. We are all learning, all the time. I learn every day. When you hear something life-changing, it changes you. It has to sink in for a while. When it does, you have two choices. Break down, or face it. I did a little of both. But I am better now. We are all better.
