I dont know what it is about listening to music when I exercise, but rhythm and beat and rhyme have a way of getting me through when I am tired. As songs build in my ears, I find my feet below me quicken in step. I run stronger and faster with the beat of the music. When the music slows, I breathe again and ease my pace. Its a funny thing...
Right now, as senior year comes quickly to a close, there is a song in my ears slowing my pace. I no longer want to run fast, I want to slow down and breathe again. It is time to soak in the scenery and walk, listening to the people around me and memorizing their faces.
I cherish this time with people so dear to me. As sad as I am to go, I find myself so grateful for the faces in my mind and forever on my heart, more importantly for their encouraging words echoing in my ears. This place and these people have given me a song I can forever hear in my heart, it is a song that never stops playing, a song that keeps me going when I get tired.
Thank you, dear friends, for your words...they will follow me where ever I go.
