But God I miss you

So something that seems to be a popular topic of blogging the past couple of days, and that would be home. Which is sort of ironic because thats what I have been thinking about a lot these past four weeks. I have never been one to get homesick, I think its only really happened a few times since I moved to Columbus and it never really lasted long. But this whole time that I have been up here I have been horribly homesick. The sad part is, I don't miss being in Paulding county. I miss my friends from there, but I always do. I miss being in Columbus, so much.

In Columbus I was finally able to find myself and be indpendent. It scared me at frist how fast Columbus became my home since it took years for me to feel at home in Paulding. I worry that I will turn into one of those people who seem to get stuck in Columbus. I know that this is only a stop on the journey for me, that I am not meant to stay, but it holds this place in my heart that I don't want to think about giving away just yet.

Another thing that has been on my mind a lot lately is Kelley. Tomorrow, well really in an hour, it will be one year since she died. It seems so strange to me that its already been a year, it feels like Kelly went of to CLIMB and she will be back next semester even though I know it isn't true. I was never very close to Kelly, I knew who she was, I did a free stage with her and I feel blessed to have known her in that small capacity. However over the course of this year by getting to know people better who knew her so well, I feel like I've gotten to know her better. It makes me sad, and I miss her but its just so strange becuase I didn't know her that well.

And so to tie these two ramblings together, Scott introduced me to an artist by the name of Gavin Mikhail, if you have not heard his music I strongly recomend him. He has a song called Days Gone By which seems to be very fitting for this post so enjoy.
