Day 13:Eyes

Photo of the day:
Eyes are wonderful things. This picture kind of reminds me of a pair of eyes because of the reflection. "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." How many times have I heard that one before? To a younger pair of eyes, the world is still new. They want to see it all. They want to know it all. To me, I want to see the world. I want to travel all summer. I have been in Michigan my whole life. I love Michigan. It is where all of my family is. It is where I have made some of the best friends a girl could ask for. It is where I met my boyfriend. While he is in Texas doing his army thing, I have to admit I am a little jealous. He has seen so much more of the world than I have. Yes I have been to a different country. But, being from Detroit Canada hardly seems like a different country because it is so close. They are our friendly neighbors.
To the older set of eyes, they have seen it all. I love hearing stories from when my mom and grandma grew up. Back then, it was a whole other world. With all the technology and cultural differences that have occurred since my grandparents were young, I can only imagine what the world will be like when I am a grandmother. I do not believe that the world is going to end of 2012. It could happen but I refuse to believe so. In all honesty, I would be pretty bummed out if it ended in 2012 because I do not have everything accomplished in life that I feel I am supposed to accomplish. I will not be down with college until 2013 or 2014.
Different eyes see the world in different ways. It all depends on how you were raised, where you were raised, etc. I have had a pretty easy life. In all honesty, I always try to be optimistic and see the positive in every situation. While that is not always possible, it does not hurt to try. I will talk to you all soon. I am going to relax before I go into work.
