Beginning

"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth."
-Genesis 1:1
Most stories start at the beginning. My story starts at the beginning of a new chapter and the end of an old one. There is no definite beginning to one and end to the other, as I have learned the hard way. We need to concentrate on the future almost more than we focus on the here and now. As I focus so much on the future, I find the present passing me by before I can grasp the time I am losing so quickly. So why would I sit down on a Friday night in May of my senior year and create a blog? So that I can make myself look around instead of focusing ahead, just enough to take a breath and keep going.
I dont mean for this blog to have much of any interest to anyone but myself, although sharing my "oh so profound" thoughts about the world around me seemed like it would be much more fun than sitting on Facebook.... Most of my blogs will contain random thoughts or pictures of the things I do or think about. Little by little, the Melissa that is truely me will unfold and shine through the writing that is tying to hide it. The Melissa you find there is me. Me at my best, and worst, self.
Welcome to my blog. This is my Journey....
