Just a short and somewhat personal entry today.
Shortly after the beginning of the month, my mother contacted me to let me know that there was a Lilith Fair tour again this year. It has been about years since this celebration of women in music came around. This made me very, very excited, happy, and nostalgic to say the least.
All concerts aside, this made for a set plan to visit my family at the end of the month. At this point I didn't know that I was about to jump into going to school, much less that my start date would be August 2nd. This knowledge made this visit all the more important.
I've been blessed to have a supportive and loving family all of my life and living far away has been difficult at times. To get to see them before I took on a new course in life was very important to me. The visit made me feel more grounded and attending a concert that my mother and I were regulars at 10 years ago held a lot of meaning to me, now, as an adult.
If you have a supportive family, do what you can to involve them in the steps you are taking to better yourself and give yourself direction. Their support can help you feel more prepared to face the challenges ahead.
Also, I returned home with a new pet, that's a cute fact, but is really neither here nor there. :)
