The First Pair

So here I am. Blogging. It's something I've wanted to do for a while, and now, I am doing it. I'm not quite sure what to write about at the moment, but since I have decided to focus on the comfortable things in life I guess it better be something good. :)

Why did I do that anyway? Choose to be comfortable? I suppose it was a natural instinct, something I do everyday. Don't we all? Isn't it always easier to stick with what you know and what makes you feel good? Of course it is. I think I am sort of "using" this blogging thing as an escape from change. It's so not my favorite thing, but without it, life would be oh so dull. I have a thought. If there were no change-would there ever be comfort? Hmm...let's ponder for a moment.

For Example:

I recently moved home from Auburn. I got an awesome job here in North Alabama and I am very thankful for my current situation. Although I am thankful, I am still adjusting and not as settled in as I would like. It sounds easy, doesn't it? Moving back home to the place where I should fit perfectly back into place, like a missing puzzle piece that's been hiding under the bed for a couple of years. However, it's not that easy at all. In my mind, I have been plucked from my home in Auburn. My friends, my church, the life I have established there over the past few years. I can't lie, I miss it. I mean, it IS Auburn. Driving back, seeing my orange and blue, and just being there is, well, comfortable. BUT, at the same time, that feeling that I get every time I hear "War Eagle," and every time I am encompassed by those rolling plains once again-it's indescribable. Seriously, I cannot begin to use words to tell you about "that feeling." I honestly believe that because of the huge changes I have recently experienced, "that feeling" is even greater.

So, today I have decided that I will rejoice and embrace change. Thank you change for rocking my world. And thank you change for allowing me to remember what it is that makes me feel so good and puts that world back at ease.

Happy Dancing. :)
