A pause while my mother made high-pitched sisterly devotions of gratitude.

She had always thought applying to college would be exciting. Living away from home, meeting so many new people, Learning new things, making a few poor life desicisons.

We all know what we're doing. Whether we realize it or not.

I guess life is full of maybes.
