The first day back at classes at JMU has taught me the syllabi of three very different subjects but I was also reminded of a life lesson that I am hopefully really learning this time.
It has taken me so many times to learn the thought of the day: "BE CAREFUL WHO YOU TRUST" but I'm hoping that now I've got it.
Making true friends is hard no matter what stage you are in life because things happen so unexpectedly but know a person's tendencies to share information is key. I'm not saying that you shouldn't trust people because I am a very trusting and honest person (this is probably why it's taken me so long to learn this) but it is definitely necessary to be careful. Now don't get me wrong, trust is a good thing. Trust is very important in every relationship that you have. But being cautious is also a key phrase in this post.
I've also learned today that every second breath you take comes from the ocean thanks to my oceanography teacher, Dr. Whitmeyer, as well as that the Romantic period was one of the shortest literature eras thanks to my English teacher, Dr. White. If only they taught a class on life lessons that one could learn without having to experience it but I've been told times before and it's just not starting to stick.
Now don't get me wrong, trust is a good thing. Trust is very important in every relationship that you have.
All in all, a new semester of classes leads to a new window of opportunity and that is always something to be optimistic about.
With love,
Bailey
