Adolescence

"I'm feeling overwhelmed, It's getting out of line. I know I'm not alone, just adolescence, you and I. It doesn't make me feel any better."

I have never ventured into analyzing or interpreting lyrics but I found these lyrics to accurately depict my state of mind. An adolescent in my trade, but not for very long. I near the end of what was simply an overactive mind-blowing journey of 1L-ism. Yes, I just made that word up. I'm better for it. Don't judge me monkey!

It has gone by in a flash. Everything in the past seems so minuscule compared to the picture I have painted in my mind. I see glimpses of my future, the path to the left and the path to the right. I see promises and I see struggles. Either way, "Life is a roller-coaster, and I'm not strapped in. Maybe I should hold with care, but my hands are busy in the air."

One foot in front of the other, one step at a time. Life with sudden decisions, long-term decisions, mistakes, regrets, etc. Take them all in, jumble them all up, see what is left, and just go with it. Live free, smile and breath.

I'm in a good place, but with worries nagging wayside. My focus remains on my future but I'm taking the present as it is present to me. I love where I am, I love what I do, I love myself, and I love you.
