I can’t wait to go back to the comfortable and the familiar. I don’t regret my decision to come to graduate school so far away from home… but I don’t think people realize how difficult it is, emotionally. You grow up so much, but that doesn’t mean growing up doesn’t hurt.
I miss my Hawaii.
I was born in a loving home
With a big ol’ room I could call my own
Whose to say about those who don’t
Get no love as they grow old
Who can save them from the freezing cold or the striking hand, or the broken home?
I wanna help I know, just don’t know how to show
‘Cuz money can’t fix a broken home
And only prayer can heal a broken soul.

Being on my own made me realize many things about my life. One thing I realized these past few months? I’m stronger than I think.
