leaving

In a day I will be off to Ireland helping Chi Young find an apartment and settling in for his one year studying abroad. It'll be a hard year, knowing that the kid will be gone, gone, gone. When people leave like this, I wish the world weren't so damn big. But people do leave, and there are oceans and mountains and thousands of miles in between. I am one of those people who don't want things to change. I am fine with everything the way they are. Everything was fine when he was just a little kid playing with Legos and Pokemon and watching Drake & Josh on Nickelodeon. I don't need him to grow up and go study overseas.

I know. It's an exciting adventure for him, and you cannot hold people back. Let them spread their wings and see what's out there. I just rather they not. That's all I am saying. Everybody just keep their wings where they are. There are plenty of good schools a bus ride away from here. Wings and flying are unnecessary.
