I Love Apples

So I've made up my mind, and I'm ready for my press release. Since I'm fairly confident that nothing in my life will ever require an actual press release, this is as close as I will get. So let me have my moment. :)

After careful deliberation, meditation, contemplation, and one honking pro/con list, I have decided what I'll do after I graduate in December. It's been a decision that has been hibernating inside me for years, rearing its head distinctively two Novembers ago on my second trip to the city. It felt good to be there, I mean really good. And after I left, I experienced a longing that has continued to persist, pulling at my coat sleeve and whispering in my ear, "Come back, and stay awhile." And so I am. In January, I'll move to New York City where I'll find a job, a crappy studio apartment, and hopefully that unidentified thing that I'm looking for. I've decided that if I'm going to be broke, and lonely, and lost, I might as well be all of those things in one of the greatest cities in the world (thanks for the perspective DP).  And I'm in luck, because my good friend EH knows the city well and will be living with me and showing me the ropes, for a few months at least. So there it is, my life plan. Now nothing but Frank Sinatra and Jay-Z until Christmas.

And it is okay if it does not feel like it. It is okay if there are moments where you cannot see the way you have grown, because far beneath the surface the seeds have still been sown. The ground beneath your feet is still a bed for new beginnings. So much is changing around you but you are changing, too. You are so much more than the brokenness that you were certain would define you. It has not been easy for you. You have worked so hard to be the positive one. You have given your best in areas of your life where the effort was not returned. And this has made it so hard for you to keep going, and there have been days where you were not sure if it was even possible. But after everything, here you are, just a li...
