And What













It ain't nothing but a thing. This blog is going to get a little more personal.  A series of events have occurred since January.  Well actually I should probably start at the end of December of last year.  Where I am currently is a culmination of growth, nostalgia, opportunity, and disappointment.  I have so much going for me and so much to yet experience that I am grateful for where I am and who I'm becoming. 

Certain situations and people have left me feeling disappointed, a disappointment that for some reason or another I have been spared with for a good amount of time.  But now that these situations have arose I've re-evaluated other aspects of my life.  Lately, I've had a reality check or perhaps you can call them epiphanies--either way, I'm readjusting. What I have been living thus far has been pretty great, but I am ready for a change.  

On another note:

My personality is what it is. If you know me, you know very well that I have my opinions and I'm going to speak my mind.  Some people feel threatened by this, others get scared, and very few actually appreciate it.  If more people would simply appreciate it, my life would be that much easier.  I feel sometimes like I become an outcast, not because I don't get along well with people but because it is an inherent composition of my personality.  I'm tired of living by politically correct terms, I don't care if you think I'm arrogant, of course I want you to like me but if you don't I'm not going to sweat it.  I'm tired of the bullshit we play in social interactions with one another.  They say choose your battles--but what about a person that cares soo much that they want to take on every battle?  

Why can't people just be who they are and defend what they believe in? Call me ideal, but if people simply had more confidence and less reservations this world would be a much better place.

i can see that you're very much an idealist, and it really is sad to know that the hierarchical makeup of society stifles voices, continually polarizing "us" from "them."

i hope your dream of having a world of kobe bryants and anthony bordains comes true.

can't wait till the next post..
