why?

last night i ran into a lot of familiar faces i hadn't seen in ages. and let me say this...it scared me to death. over the course of time, post-high school, these kiddos have stayed around town, gotten hitched, had babies, worked the same 'ole job just to say they have a job..and ventured to nowheresville. at first, i was deeply saddened and shocked by the fact that, for them, this was life. they've never been outside of their comfort zone, (for the most part) never taken a huge risk to make it on their own, and more importantly never seen the world in a different light. after all the questions, i realized this is what i wanted, dreamed of, hoped for...and all these dreams that i'm making a conscious effort to make happen aren't necessarily everyone's wish. and then i felt like a bitch. so i grabbed another, hit the dance floor and had fun nonetheless.

i've come to the conclusion that no matter where you're at in life or what you're doing with your life, as long as your happy in the grand scheme of things..then that's livin' a good life.

i also realized it's time for me to get outta here...with the exception of a few people, i'm really on my own down here...
