"If you can see the light at daybreak, you don't care if you die at dusk.
It's so many people who never see the light at all."
Elizabeth is leaving tonight. I'm not quite sure how I feel about it. God knows I'll miss her more than life itself, and it's going to get harder each day. But I still have the times we've shared together for the past 2 and a half years. It seems so overwhelmingly trite, but all we have are memories; it is all we know.
She is my inspiration to do well. In some senses, she has been my muse. Mostly, she has been my mentor, and I can't say that enough. I love her with everything I am capable of, and letting her go is something I don't feel I am ready for, even though she is. She is ready for life to lead her out into the horizon, and she is equiped with all of the necessities. I just wish I could say the same; I hope some day I can.

That picture is beautiful. Tell Elizabeth I wish her the best. She'll be happy and successful, you and I both know it. I don't know her very well but I admire her for taking such a chance by going out to Colorado!
In the meantime, I'll resume my post as one of your best (if not THE best) friends.
I know! I love that picture; it was taken in Florida over spring break from my dad's girlfriend's balcony. Can you imagine waking up and falling asleep with that every day? Goodness!
