Right now I am sitting on a bus home from college, as much
as I love college , the people, the new adventures the new lease on life, I
still get so excited about coming home every weekend . Coming home to see my family,
my old friends, the people who mean so
much to me. So as much as I hate bus journeys I know that it will end soon and
I will be home.
There is something about the familiar that makes me so
happy. I am about 20 minutes away from home now, the
moon is promptly beginning to peek out behind some clouds , even though it is
still relatively bright outside. That is something that always confused me when
I was younger. I could never really grasp why the moon could be out before it
was dark, or at times could be seen when I got up in the morning. I can’t say I
exactly understand why that happens now, but I have come to accept it. I guess
we all do that about a lot of things in life. We don’t really know why some things
happen , but we just accept it and move
on . Sometimes I wish I was more inquisitive about some things , like when I was little- asking why, when,
who , what ??? Always wondering , always wanted to know more. It’s not that I
have given up , but I have relented and taken things for what I think they are,
and not question it as much anymore.
So as I sit on this bus, swiftly approaching my town, my
home, I look at the red sky setting over the trees and hills ahead of me, I
look at the wind mills in the distance and the trees beside the road. I delight
in the known, I exult that the lord has blessed me with a home to call my
own. I don’t question it, I take it for
what it is ,and I’m glad.
Please excuse the ramblings of a wandering college girl .
