This is my the big day. I'm old enough to set out on my own. To venture into the world of unknow as my older siblings has before me. I spent the previous night making an inventory of things that I would need for my journey. I've over heard ma and pa talking two nights ago. They are saddend that another of their's is ready to leave the. It pains me that I'm leaing my parents behind. But I'm also thrilled to finally be on my own. I love my dear family very much.
Everyone was quite durring dinner last. Conversation was kept to a minimum. That was until grandma brought out the wine from the celler. Tention was soon released and the rejoycing began. I retired to my quaters learier than usual. The next day was going to be a new day, a new begining, and the start of a self discovering journy.
I slowly went around with teary eye's and rosy cheeks from cry earlier today. I gave everyone hugs and kisses. Telling them that everythings going to be alright. Ma gave me a white fleece to wear durring the cold night. Da rode to the near by taylor to buy me a warm pair of khakhi pants. Grams looked at be with brizillian eye's and handed me my satchel. I made my a second round of good-byes, hugs and kisses. knowing that this will be the last time I will see my family for a long time.
Mounting my horse, Romie. I started off down the stone path. Waving to everyone good-bye. I turn my head forward and road off into the fields with the wind in my face, my home behind me, friends and family in my heart, and tears in my eye's.
