MODE #1
To leave is to be tortured. Especially on a Monday morning, when leaving means going to school at 7 am, half asleep with not nearly enough coffee in hand. If you think about it, you have so many things you have to leave on Monday mornings. You leave your eventful (or in some cases not so eventful) weekend behind. You leave your cozy bed the second your noisy alarm clock buzzes in your ear--off to the shower. You let the warm water trickle onto your head, off your back and down the drain over and over again-until its time to leave the shower to get dressed. You leave the warmth and the comfort of it all behind, including your fuzzy robe that Grandma gave you for Christmas. You eat breakfast and drink your orange juice, leaving only crumbs for your mother to pick up later on. You leave your house, and chills are instantly sent down your spine as the frigid Minnesota weather eats away your warmth. You leave your neighborhood.
Then, you are at school, where once again you leave the comfort of your car to scamper into first block; where continuously throughout the day you will leave place after place and one thing after another. It is a never ending circle of reality. Leaving is a factor of life.

MODE #2
To leave is also to arrive. It is a critical thing in order to succeed. Sometimes, leaving is the best thing to do. You can not get anywhere without leaving something behind, whether that be your weekend comfort on a Monday morning as you leave for school, or your stressful schoolwork as you leave to go back home.
Leaving one thing will cause the arrival of a next, a new step in your day or your life. It is important to not always think of "leaving" as being so negative. It can cause very positive outcomes. It brings upon the arrival of something new, and yet another opportunity for leaving. It creates almost a never ending cycle: leave, arrive, leave, arrive, leave, arrive, etc.
You will never completely leave, or completly arrive, until the day you die--which at the time will both happen at once. You will leave the lives of your loved ones, but arrive at a better place.
