Return to Reality

Hawai'i.

I was on Oahu for a week but now I have returned to chilly Issaquah. It is a return to the stresses of life and the struggles of goals. I feel tired, unaccomplished, and miserable here. I see my grades and my list of activities and do not feel fulfilled. I have done many things, but I feel incredibly empty.

I miss Hawai'i. I had family and baby cousins to look forward to every day. Beach, shave ice, and self-serve frozen yogurt (a new fad I discovered... look up Yogurtland). It was paradise. But now I have returned to dismal Washington and all I have to look forward to is homework and teaching sunday school. :P

But this all has meaning to it. I need to catch up with my homework to prove to myself that I am capable of accomplishing my goals. I need to be prepared for the weeks ahead. And it is all building up to increase my knowledge for future goals. I am laying down the strong foundations for my future and then I will find happiness. For now I still need to have moments of joy, but I also must plow through the challenges. I had one entire week of pleasure, now I must get through the obstacles and move onward.

The light at the end of the tunnel: I can see it.

Listen to the above music; it's amazing!
