Well, it has been a long time coming, but as I sit here and write this final blog entry, my time here has finally reached its conclusion with less than 24 hours left here in Spain. The last three weeks or so I have been aware that this moment was coming, and now it has finally arrived. I tried to prepare myself for this but it is still hard. When I was 16 years old and in high school I had a vision: I would go to Spain, live, work, study, something, but I would live in Spain. Well I can now say that I have done it. As hard as it is for me to say goodbye, it is just as gratifying, knowing that I have accomplished a dream of mine. Although I can leave with the satisfaction of living out this great experience, I still have more to accomplish. When I reflect on the past 9 or so months, I see the person that I have become, and how this experience has shaped my life, and I feel great about it. More than anything, my time here has taught me to keep fighting, to keep working hard for what I want and believe. It is now time to take the next step, a new goal awaits. Let's do this.
