Now, I don’t really know a lot about life. There are things I’ll never do and people I’ll never meet. I’m not sure if there’s a god or an afterlife, and I probably never will be. So, I used to think that life was pointless; that nothing a person could do mattered; that life is a waste. But I think, maybe, it’s personal. I can never see life through someone else’s eyes. I can never experience the feelings and emotions of another. I can never live any life but my own. I know that our time here on Earth is short, and I know that maybe my life isn’t important to others, or to the whole scheme of things, but it is to me. To me, my life is my fate. Now, I don’t know if everything that people do is planned ahead of time, or if it is all accidental, but I know that personally, to me, I can make choices and I can live. Lots of great thinkers and philosophers have said before that life is brief and to seize the day, but never before have I understood. I get it now, and I want you all to know I love you. You’re all a part of my life. You’re all important to me. And when this brief candle burns out, I’m going to miss you.
I think that my life; my fate, would be nothing without your presence. I would be nothing without you.
Now maybe, I'm not really making sense, or maybe I'm being too abstract to be followed clearly, but it's there, and I said it. In my life, things are always constant. No matter what changes in the world, my life is steady. People I know will leave. People I don't know will be met. People will change my life, my personal fate. Maybe this is too serious or personal a topic for a silly blog entry, where the topics are usually drinking and school, but let me tell you something: I cried tonight. I'm not ashamed of it, because I've never felt so connected with my world. I've found a new direction to take with my destiny, and so, thank you.
