I am so thankful for technology and easy communication and freedom of travel.
Because of all of that, I can successfully keep up a relationship from 1500 miles away (coming up on six months in about 11 days…hip hip hooray!). Because of it, I am spending the summer getting awesome experience and learning from some ridiculously brilliant people half a country away. Because of it, I can go experience the world and make decisions on my own while knowing that if and when my family needs me, I’m just a plane ride away. I can live my own life and still call my mom every night for advice if I need to.
Maybe it takes the daunting difficulty out of striking out on your own. I’m pretty sure I’m ok with that.
