I’m afraid of how long it’ll take to get the world in shape again
Like many this year, my life has changed in lots of ways, for better, and for worse.
I started school again—just paid my $4500 tuition for the first time (lookame go, Mom!).
Seriously though, university has loomed ahead of me the past few years, but since not so long ago my traveling escapades ended, I knew it was time to bite the bullet.
And it was a freaking bullet.
Physically, mentally. . . spiritually? Eh, not that last one, but I wanted three.
In every aspect of my life, the worst part of university is knowing that I’m choosing to give up on some of my dreams temporarily. I wish I could travel nonstop, write like Brandon Sanderson, and keep all of you up to date on everything, but for real, I needed a break from it all. I needed time to focus on my needs, and I needed time to cope with the reality of my postponed dreams.
It felt wrong to halt my YouTube and my blog, and what I believe in, even for a week.
I didn’t like doing that, but something in me said I needed to stop a minute, and I was right to.
Since I’ve been gone, my writing habits have vastly improved, and I’ve figured out how to dodge and weave past many of the obstacles this year has thrown at me.
I feel like most people needed that extra time to situate their lives again this year.
What I’ve learned in 2020 is that new hurdles keep coming, and if I don’t find it in myself to prevail, to push my vocation through the clutter, I end up feeling buried in it.
Time flies.
I’m sorry it’s been a while.
But in writing this, I’m excited, scared, and overall glad to be back.
I have lots of ideas to share with you!!
More soon 🙂
Live your way,
Noah
