Life’s A Journey

10:00 am on a Sunday morning, the sun is shining and it’s beaming so bright outside, as I am standing outside I begin to hear the birds chirping, the dogs running wild and chasing after the cats, the squirrels are climbing the tree’s enjoying every part of nature as they should. I began to pack the vechile to travel down this long road not knowing which way to go, but I knew I will get to my destination.

As I wave goodbye to my family, I shed a few tears because I didn’t know leaving would be this hard, but I knew I was making the right choice in life, I knew that God had something better in store for me. As, I am staring out the window thinking about my childhood and how I had so much plan out for my life, but I never accomplish exactly what I wanted to achieve.

I knew stepping out on a new journey in life would end up scary but also good or bad! I honestly did not know which way it would go. As I am in the country on the back roads, it was so peaceful and beautiful, as I am seeing the cows eat grass, the horses walking around and laying down. I begin to miss home! I wanted to turn around but I couldn’t I had to keep going, because my destination was a couple of hours away.

While On the highway there was state troopers all over the place but I am praying we do not get pulled over. Time went by and I finally went to sleep, but the time I woke up I was entering a new destination, my new journey in life.

As these tall bridges ahead of me was so pretty and the water look so amazing, I knew this was where I was meant to start my new journey. Knowing that I lived only a couple of mins from the beach made me love it here even more! I called my mother and grandfather so much because I missed home most of all I missed them. The air smelled so refreshing.

The way the wind blew through my hair and it made me smile, because for once I accomplished something, that was me moving away from Abbeville. Even though Abbeville is my hometown and will always be my hometown, I just know that I made the right choice by starting something new in life, where no one knows me, I could be me and never get judged for it.

As days go by I started to feel so sad and down because I missed being with my grandfather, but I knew he was so proud of me, because I took a chance on a new journey in life. I started to make friends and I got a job on the second day of being in Jacksonville, I was like man my life is surely starting to turn around for me.

Moving away from my family and friends was so hard, but I had to get away to have a fresh start in life! I had to go see something new in life, see a different place and see where this journey takes me. Even though I had family here, it wasn’t the same but I felt at home because we are all we had!

The moral of the story is “ Life’s A Journey” and we may not end up on the path that we wanted to end up on, and sometimes our path lead us to bad things happening but that is a part of our journey that we have live through and get past it!
