not knowing

im about to graduate for high school and go off to school which i find exciting. but i was talking to some friends the other day and they were saying how it scary, going off on your own, and not knowing. but not knowing makes it exciting. i mean we are scared to brake away from what we know. this i think just holds us back from amazing experience we could be have but cause its knew and difference we are hesitant. maybe i think like this just because i want to just live and embrace new and different things. who knows!
