Reach Out and Click

The world is at the tip of our fingers,
Our options are endless,
The addiction to click lingers,
The pull and desire to press,
All I want to do is reach out and click.

Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram control my mind,
The updates, pictures, and posts are at the tip of my hand,
and yet I feel confined.
I try to take a stand,
All I want to do is reach out and click.

Google, Bing, and Yahoo answer my questions,
A sea of confusion is calmed through the ease,
I ignore all other suggestions,
It’s like a disease,
All I want to do is reach out and click.

Online messaging, and emailing keep me updated,
I don’t feel lost in a sea of data,
As I read the words on the screen I feel elated,
It’s the first step toward my personal beta,
All I want to do is reach out and click.

The options are endless,
The ability to click opens up the world,
I must confess,
I’ve become unfurled,
All I want to do is reach out and click.

The desire to click,
comes so quick,
The answers can be found,
It sure is profound,
All you have to do is reach out and click.

…our deepest fear


As my semester comes to a close (one month left!) I slowly realized that I didn't have the semester I sought out to achieve. Don't get me wrong I had an amazing last semester of College- I got to do the job that I love, meet new people, hang out with my friends, and even travel. It truly was a great way to go out. BUT. I didn't get to do all the things on my Boone Bucket list- time just slipped through my fingers and now all I want to do is walk that stage in December. Yet, I am left wondering will I regret not fulfilling all my goals? Will I question why I didn't get to succeed in relishing in being a college student one last time? Will I fear my next step?

I guess I won't really know until I move that tassel over and shake Chancellor Peacocks hand one last time.

I can say this with confidence I am ready to graduate and head towards my…deepest fear…greatness!
