It really is short.

I've been having fearful thoughts lately. Not because of any recent mishaps, but concerns about my future; the thought of missing out on the joys life offers. I know they're out there, and I want to pursue them more than ever. I'm glad I now realize how fast time truly passes by, than to have it pass by, then, realize I had messed up by not doing my best to get the most out of life. Regrets (hopefully ones that aren't too detrimental) will be there, they come with the package. Not attempting to try new things is my biggest concern. In a way, I do feel I have wasted time and could have done a lot more up to this point in my life, but I'm only a young college student, so I've still got plenty of time. Hopefully. Living life to the fullest is not nearly as easy as the people who say it make it sound. Me meeting the right people, to have great opportunities and experience new things, to living another week aren't guaranteed. Boy, does that suck. A lot of us try to do things conservatively before deciding to do the things we want to do, and, tragically, probably won't even make it to that point. Priorities come first, and like many others, I have them. School happens to be the biggest of them all. That being said, I still try to make the most of each day as much as I possibly can.
