...A Rather Profound Entry
this is going to be another one of my heartfelt entries, even though I doubt that anyone reads this thing anymore. as i sit around with lots and lots of time to think, i'm looking back not only on 2003, but on most of my life. as i proceed to do this, i realize what i used to be, and compare it to what i have become. after spending several years as children, we don't have the discipline or the consideration to look upon what we have and to appreciate it. at that young of an age, appreciation really isn't a factor in life, simply because there hasn't been enough life experience. as we grow older, our once childish personalities shift into a new one, and depending on the person, this can either be good or bad. in most cases, i've noticed, the changes are for the worse. most people i've noticed, seem to live their lives like they're a race. a constant fast-paced sprint through life. how can this give you an opportunity to enjoy life? the answer is simple...it can't. while these people rush through their lives, others decide to risk their lives on a regular basis. whether it be dabbling in alcohol, drugs, etc. etc. sooner or later, everyone will have a bad experience with any of the above, because the fun (or what seems like fun) will not last forever. all it takes is a small oversight, and its all over. a life can be thrown away FASTER than the blink of an eye. so, my question to these people: "why?" why ruin your life, possibly risk losing it, possibly risk losing a friend, for something as senseless as these things? what does it get you? you feel goofy for a few hours, but guess what guys: your problems are still gonna be there when you come down. i'm sure half of you; maybe even all of you are reading this and saying "this kid's an idiot. what does he know?" well guys, all i know is that 2003 was possibly the greatest and most imformative year of my life. 2003 helped me to realize all of the wonderful things, wonderful people, great friends, loved ones, and people that care about me that i have in my life. it also helped to realize how much i truly care about some of the other people in my life. i have agreed with myself that not another thing in my life will be taken for granted, because i have now realized how quickly you can lose or risk losing what, or even who is important to you. i now take all the time i need to appreciate my life, and those who are in it. remember guys, life is a gift, not a right. so why ruin it? just have fun, be yourself, and appreciate all that you have.
