I've gotten myself into some conundrums recently. I feel like I'm on the verge of something, like I feel myself changing. Tonight I auditioned for a part in the flashback production this year and I enjoyed it. I realize that I'm 25 now, but its like I've only recently begun to live my life. In the past year and a half I've had more fun and experienced more about myself than I feel like I have ever before. And I don't know if its just tonight, but I sense that I'm going to be a very different person in a relatively short amount of time. It isn't inevitable or anything, but I just feel like I'm on the fence and I just need a push, either from an outside source or from myself even.
The biggest change I can point to, I guess, is that I've become more open and talkative. I've always had a problem sharing myself I think and this blog was an outlet, which is why I haven't written a whole lot, I haven't needed to. I thought I wasn't writing because I wasn't having any life experiences, but I sort of realized that its possible that I wasn't writing because I didn't need to. I was enjoying these life experiences with other people. I'm not even sure that makes sense as I write it.
But what I'm afraid of is that if I change too much, what I've learned about myself will no longer apply. Not long ago, it was brought to my attention that I have some small skill that encourages people to trust me and open up. I like that people trust me, but with these changes in me that I foresee in my future, I feel that I'll change and I'll know less about myself once again. Like its taken me this long to learn how little I know about myself and who I am, and man, has it been a long time, and just as soon as I think I've gotten a grip on things, here we go again.
Why is it that I fear change? Do I like where I am and I want to stay? Or is it because I'm not sure whats to come? Just when things are getting comfortable, y'know? Sigh. Here we go again.

"I feel that I'll change and I'll know less about myself once again."
or maybe you're only building on your experiences and learning more about yourself everyday. the 'you' that you think you are now, is that really you? has it already changed, and how do you know
life is learning. change will happen, with and without our permission
what defines us anyway...and who is the person, the "I" behind the words we speak, the thoughts we think, the actions we make and the path we take (ughh it even rhymes)
maybe a different word for 'change' could be Growth
