Come this 18th of August, I will be officially graduating from college and therefore, a new chapter of my life begins. It's always exciting at the same time disheartening when something comes to an end. Exciting obviously because of what lies ahead but disheartening because we have to leave behind some of the things that we have grow to be fond of. Moving on is the word. As much as we want to cling to the comfort of the past, we have to make some space for the future and that includes letting go of some things we hold dearly. For those whose life has always revolve around college, the word graduation may even sound like a maudlin ballad.
Well, the second half of the year seemed to have started off on a negative note. Death was often the headlines be it on international, national or a personal level. For those who have lost love ones, may you find comfort in the presence of your family and friends. As for now, starting a new means I'll have to clean up some mess which includes a weeks worth of dirty laundry.
