Run, just keep running! Don't look back!

A year ago I had left public school and had begun to work for Wendy's and now it's almost over. There's only one thing standing between me and the trophy of graduation, one last sprint for the finish line of the race to finish highschool. When I started independent study, I knew what I was getting into, but I still wasn't prepared for the transition of my thoughts and goals. I'm now my own person; before I was a kid blowing bubbles in a pool of life, now I'm a man making waves and splashing all around me, but someday I will be a titan causing tsunamis of change with each step I take. How have I changed from boy to man? You see I've given this a lot of thought and realized that I have convinced my parents that I am responsible enough to be trusted to the reins of my own life and now I have control over its direction and speed. Yahh! I'm going 60mph now and I long for more speed, but...am I going the right way? I am, I'm sure of it! And that confidence is what changed that boy into this man.
