Today

Seven years ago, I walked to my campus job and began my day normally. By the time lunch came around, I had experienced a Wiley E. Coyote moment when the ground of my safe little world dropped out beneath me. I realized that the world wasn't quite the place I thought it was.

Over the past several years, I feel like I grew up. My views on the world have changed multiple times. I have changed. As I look back, those events were rooted in a wish to "do something" that was born that day. That fundamental change altered my path for the rest of my life.
