1354 Words6 Pages

A wise man once said, ¨Change is never easy, you fight to hold on, and you fight to let go¨. That speaks to what I have been doing since I have moved to Mankato. There is not one day that goes by where I don't think of my friends, my neighborhood, the high school I would be at, everything about Michigan.
