In class we had to write a story from our life. This paper was very hard and very easy at the same time. On the one hand it took me like ten days to even think of the story that I wanted to write about. Every time I thought about things that I could write about from my life, they were all very personal. I wasn't comfortable sharing the things that really changed my life. Then I thought a lot about sifferent stories that I would be comfortable sharing, but they didn't have very much substance.
When I finally found a story I liked it seemed so obvious. I have spent more time in my life running than pretty much anything else and it is a huge portion of my high school experience. Once I found the story, it was so easy to write because it is something I am passionate about and something I remember very distinctly. It was weird thinking about a period of four years taken in abstract, but I actually learned more about myself while writing it.
