Adieu

I am leaving Winona a changed woman.

As I drive down the road, saying goodbye to every shop and every tree, the infamous Sugar Loaf, and the much-frequented-after-midnight Perkins, I set my gaze steady on the bluffs ahead. I just want to be with Jesus. That's all I care about anymore.

I look back on the past four years. Experiences I never imagined having. Places I never thought I'd go. People that shaped each moment of my each day. I try to imagine college without that person, without that store, without that moment, and the whole system falls apart. Not a single piece can be changed. Nothing added. Nothing taken away.

Another closed up chapter.
