Who reads this thing anyway? I wonder sometimes. It really doesn't matter to me who reads it, because I guess it's just more of a forum for me to place my thoughts out there. I am about to take 13 finals over the course of 5 days, and I admit I am scared. But that is not life. It is, but it doesn't draw its essence out. Everday, I drive to school, and I pass a group of hispanic men on Sawtelle waiting to find work. It always makes me think how LUCKY I am to learn the things that I do learn. I want to appreciate it and have the desire to do it well, but sometimes I know I take for granted the gifts that have been given to me. A lot in life is changing, and is perpetually in state of flux, never ever stagnant, though sometimes we may lead ourselves to believe such things.
There are places I remember all my life, though some have changed....Rena dedicated that song to me. And I can say, that it meant a lot to me...and I don't know that she reads this often, perhaps in her boredom at work, but I hope she knows that she is one of the closest things to family, next to my own family of course, that I have in this life. Happy 24th Rena :).
I've been blessed with the friendships of many beautiful souls out there. I'll never forget what each meant to me. If I died tomorrow, I wouldn't regret the way I lived at all...and I suppose that is saying a lot :).
To all my friends and family...I love you, I love you, I love you.......
