wow oh wow, can you believe it? the days we’ve been counting down for so long are finally here. the time we have together is coming to a close, and some of the things that i believed to be so important, just didn’t turn out to be. however, some of the more simpler, impromptu moments together turned out to be the memories that make my heart smile so big. i am truly going to miss y’all so so much. my heart breaks to think about how everything will change in such a short amount of time, but in a good way.
jackson, alabama is all we have ever known for a wonderful 18 years. growing up here with y’all has been one of the biggest blessings in my life. i will cherish this town and all the people in it. i will be forever grateful for the people God has placed in my life here. i would not be the person i am today without y’all.
everyone told us to cherish the moments we had left together and don’t take anything for granted. i listened, but only half-heartedly. senior year has come and gone. all the thoughts about graduation “next year” are now “next week.” my heart is sad to think that i didn’t tell y’all enough how much each of you meant to me. as each day passes i only wish more that i had listened to all those people. we only have so much time on this earth, and only so little of that time do i get to spend with you.
so, here’s to all the inside jokes we ever had, the crazy group messages, all the nights that we actually did do something fun in this plain and simple town. here’s to all the football games, homecoming weeks, and sweet conversations that i will hold dear to my heart.
when we see each other again, i know things will be different, but you will always hold a special place in my heart. please, please, remember all of your worth in Christ Jesus. this world shall soon pass away, but God and His word is forever. thanks again, for everything 🙂
