One the Eve of my 24th Birthday
So it is here. My 24th birthday. Yay, Happy Birthday to myself and I am having some mixed feelings all over. It is 11:57pm right now before November 14th and my mind is running all over the place.Hitting 24 is a huge milestone. It is the also the year of the Pig and that makes me 24 for sure. Many things has gone on in the past year and to have to look further into the future is something that scares and excites me. There is so much left in my life to do and to see. I want to live to 100 or more. Life is precious no matter how painful or torturous it is. I am so thankful for such a great family and friends. My family is the most special to me even if we are quite spread apart. To Clem, for being such a great older brother. And Jo, a person I look up to even though you are younger. Yet, we all know we all have our weaknesses, we need to learn to correct them.
Christine, there is too much to say. You are wonderful. You have so much patience in me. I could be the most horrible person, yet you don't hold it all against me. Though we have had our difficulties through these years, I'm glad I had those difficulties with you.
Dad and Mom? Are a gift from God. Period.
What is it I want more than anything this year? To see and maybe help others attain their goals. To put smiles on people's face. To bring people closer to God. And to love those around me.
My friends? Yes, they are great friends. I apologize to all if I have seemed very arrogant, rude or required too much attention. I find that with each day that I live my life, I feel that I have to give it to others. I never find happiness with myself. I find it in my neighbours, those beside me, and those closest to me. If anything, don't let go of me. I am nothing without another. I have grown up learning to share with others, and the only thing that I think is worth sharing with anyone is my life.
