Home for the Summer!

California is everything I expected it to be and everything that I love in my life. The heat and sunshine, the green grass and the chlorine damage in my hair put a smile on my face. I am loving the sun burn on my back and arms as well as my lack of social life right now. Ok...well...in spite of that sarcasm, i really do love those things. I love relaxing and I love feeling my skin turn brown (even if it has to turn red first). I love fighting with my family and seeing old friends. Its odd to see the places that have always meant a lot to me in the past, now that I'm ready to live in the present. They remind me of things that used to be important and make me feel grateful for my future. I have a bright one, thats for sure. There are so many things that tell me this is true. Many of these insights come from the smiles of the people around me, the way that they take care of me, but more importantly, they let me take care of them.

Life is good.
Work is tiring.
The sun is still shining.
