I had this grand idea...if I teach summer school I could earn some much needed cash and stay just a bit longer in Waco to spend time with friends before having to say good-bye. Alas, my grand idea flopped and I didn't get a summer school position. I have decided to go ahead and move back to Houston on June 6th. That gives me 19 more days in Waco.
I know it's time to move on and I am looking forward to spending some time with my family. It does seem very odd to be moving home at 30. The only one who knows that I'm moving home sooner is my mom...a belated Mother's Day gift. I do plan to come back at least once a month before I leave for Mother India...but the tears still come.
The hardest part of leaving is knowing that the moment you drive away everything will change...you can never come back, you simply must move forward. This gift of time with people in Waco will only be carried on in memories.
My life will change, too. But I will live those changes that I will so clumsily have to try to explain to others in words. That's why I created a blog. I've never been one to only be attached to people in one place. That's how I stay connected to the world...by living vicarious through others. As I share my life on this page, I hope you will continue to share your life with me.
