"I'm alive and I'm free who wouldn't wanna be me?"
I'm feeling extremely reflective tonight. I'm just sitting here listening to some 'Texas Music' on 105 and it's bringing back so many memories. I'm amazed at how much my life has changed in the past year. It's been a great year, I'm really happy with the way things are going for me right now, but part of me misses my life so much. It seemed like the world stood still for a while September 21st 2002, the axis tilted in a different direction and the spin got faster. Priorities changed, lives changed, worlds were shattered, and memories were lost. Suddenly fun took a backseat to neccesity. I don't really go out anymore, half the time I'm asleep before 10pm, I don't see any of my old friends anymore. Life took a different direction for me. Now instead of Pat Green and Cory Morrow on the weekends, it's Meteorology, Paleontology, or some other Scientific pursuit. Don't knock it, I've met great new friends and made awesome contacts. For once I finally feel like I know what I'm talking about, I'm in my element. I can see so much of my life mapped out before me and that's an excellent comforting feeling my friends. So much of the BS is behind me, of course I realize life always thows you those curves, but I'm ready for them now. I'm honestly happier than I can remember being in years, (lonely maybe, but still happy). The best thing about it is that I only see things getting better. I've learned to be open to new experiences and people, and I've learned, I mean REALLY learned that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I've not only learned it, but I've been applying it alot here lately ;) In the words of Ms. Aguillera..."thanks for making me a fighter"
