One little change has the ability to affect our lives so greatly, make us happier, and I didn't even realize that until recently. Just a semester ago, I found myself miserable with school, not grade wise, just content wise. My grades were where I wanted them but being at that university was just a miserable experience. And sure, living on campus that first year was great.
But now, I found myself smiling when I wake up. Believe me, my life isn't easy. My course load is difficult and there is so much reading even this soon in the semester but that isn't bothering me. It's helping me become a better student, opening my horizons. And I have so many credits to fulfill in the next two years since I'm a double major, Early Education and English and going through the licensure program. So there's a lot to do but I'm enjoying it. And I'm going to need to take winter courses during winter break later this year but all of that is okay with me because I feel blessed. I am at a school where I genuinely feel happy. It's been a while since I felt complete with my life as a whole. And sure, stressful times will come. But when you have the privilege to feel happy with you life, you take those stressful times with stride because it will pass.
It took me a little while to get to a place where I truly feel happy with my life, with myself and the people around me.
