At this point, a few more things have now become clear to me and they make me much more comfortable and a lot less freaked about the current course of life events I seem to be set on. I wish that I could go about certain things while managing to avoid others, but that does not seem possible. But at least I know that the end results will be oh-so-worth it. I really wish that I could expound more on it to you all, but this is not the time nor the place. (Buy me some chai and take me shopping if you're really that curious, but it will all make sense in time.)
Another thing that has really been on my mind lately is the role that the little things play in our every day lives. Why is it that when passing by somebody that we know, we say "Hello" and ask how they are. Why do we ask this? It's typically done in passing so we don't wait around for the answer. Besides that, one typically answers good or fine no matter what their real state of affairs is. Why is this? Why do we feel the need to connect with those around us when we really have no desire to know the answers to our own questions?
On a positive note, as of last night, my cousin Ryan is firmly back on US soil after his most recent tour, I believe this one was in Afghanistan again. I am looking forward to getting to see him as I have not seen him in far too long.
On the negative note, my grandparents have once again changed their mind about moving back down state. I swear my mom is going to kill them one of these days. At least with their current decision, mom won't need to be running up there so often. Well, supposedly at least. The reasoning behind this is that now my aunt can help them out more. Unfortunately, my aunt lives 10 minutes from them yet MY mom is the one that has to run up there all the time because those close by aren't able to do it. Ugh!
