Crossroads.

It feels strangely apt. As though this should be happening right about now. And there's a strange method to this madness. Order to the chaos. Calmness, even in the turbulence.

And even more strangely, it's exciting. Terrifying, nerve-wrecking but so, so exciting. It's like that feeling before a storm when you know it's coming but you feel like you've never been more ready for it. Ready to embrace it with open arms.

It's difficult to contain it, really. There's so much to be said, so much to be done. And yet, the wait seems endless. There are times when it all seems to be falling into place and then there are others when the bubble bursts and you feel like you're back to square one. They always say, "life has something in store for everyone. You just have to wait for your chance and see". Some days you keep the faith, some days you lose it. But this is just one of those days when you don't know.

Don't know where this is going, don't know where you're headed, don't know what life has in store for you or if it even has anything in store. And yet, you can feel it.

The next 20 days are going to change life, the way I currently know it, forever. In more ways than one. And it's a scary prospect. And as much as I may brace myself for it, the impact is going to be deep.

Choices. Joy. Conversations. More choices. Sorrow. Change. Old friends. New beginnings. Or not?

I guess this is why they call them crossroads.
