It was said once on One Tree Hill: “When all your dreams come true, who is standing next to you?”
It is starting to hit me that I am at the age where I am entering the real world. A majority of my friends that I grew up with in Lincoln are graduating college and getting jobs else where. I have a number of friends that I have met in college that are graduating and moving back to home states. Yes, it is depressing. Have I cried about it: YES.
I don’t think that people ever grow apart from each other, we all just learn that some point in life we grow and begin the rest of our lives. When my friends and I graduated high school there were some of us that stayed here in Lincoln and others that went to out of state schools. However, the one thing that kept us together was coming back home to Lincoln. Now all I am hoping for is that the University of Nebraska brings my college friends coming back to visit.
I am learning that this is not goodbye; this is see ya later because we are all going on to do bigger and better things with our lives. It is our time now to change the world for the better and make a difference while we are at it. It is our time to grow up, get married, have children, buy a house and operate a family.
I just pray that I do not lose connection with all my friends. I want them to be by my side when all my dreams really do come true.
