I’m not ready for this, not this time.
June 26th used to seem like a lifetime away, but now it’s right around the corner.
I always seem to be going somewhere new, somewhere different.
Trenton, Brookfield, Wolfville, Dumfries, North Bay, Oakville, have all been my home, but now there’s here.
The first place in my “adult life” that I’ve stuck out for more that one year in a row. The first place in a long time I’ve come back to. But I won’t be doing that anymore.
I know it’s right, I know it’s time, but that doesn’t mean that I’m ready. So much left to say, so much left to do.
I wasn’t ready to say goodbye to the Grade 12s so I didn’t. Now they’re gone. I’m not ready to say goodbye to my friends. Hopefully they’ll wait for me to get the courage. If not, I hope they understand.
But I guess it’s time for me to go. Time to get close to somewhere else, before it’s time to go again.
Until next time,
G
