Grade school now seems like a long time ago as I try to recollect my choices from those years. And high school doesn’t seem as daunting as it felt now that I am sitting comfortably in my 30s, doing work I enjoy, and participating in activities I want to be part of.
Now, I begin to understand how how we spend our lives today matters because the choices we make will eventually add up and shape what tomorrow will look like.
My grade school self’s tomorrow is already today, and I’m glad I did what I did.
