High Heels and Desks

This morning I woke up with a smile on my face. It has been a while since that has happened. Things in Ohio have been running me down and all I can think about it getting out of here every chance I get. Athens used to hold a special place in my heart and I imagine it will once again after I have left my legacy behind. Everyone in this town wants to change the world. Many of them are able to change it.......some just give up once the magical power of this place has vanished. I refuse to let this pace wear me down any longer. I refuse to let life slip by when I have plenty of time to accomplish the goals I set for myself when I got here. I will finish my thesis and when I walk across that stage in June, I will know I was able to make this a good experience. My health will return and I will be able to move on with my life and become the woman I know I am capable of being. New outlook on life. New determination.....with a vengeance.
