A Ton Of Bricks

And then it hits me like a ton of bricks. That I am going to Australia all alone in 2 days time. How will my life change? How different it will be for me to not have anyone by my side to embrace. To literally face the world alone. What a giant leap in faith it will be. Am I ready to take that leap? Moreover I am going to a school that I do not know anyone in.

perhaps and only now do I know the predicament that I left dandelion in, I am deeply truly sorry for what I did. Only now will I truly treasure those I have around me, my parents, my sister. The things I have around me, buttons, Casey, a maid to help me out with my daily chores. I asked for it didn't I? To step out of my comfort zone and yet I feel it's too little time to take it all in... To savor the moment. I will miss my comfy bed and the security of a safe home and enriching environment. This study trip of 3+ years will indeed truly teach me to treasure family and those around me. I cringe at the thought of me knowing that it maybe the last reunion dinner with my grandfather.... By the time I come back home buttons will be so old, to snuggle up with her just makes my day. In fact I should stop writing and savor the moments before its too late. To tell my parents and people around me how much i treasure the before its too late. Ah... All sentimental now eh Frederick? What have you been doing all 22 years of your life?
