In the past few months I feel I have grown more than I had grown in all of my 20 or so years before. Writing had always come naturally to me and yet every time I sat to do so, I found myself staring at a blank canvas for various chunks of time. I thought maybe I'd outgrown the blog thing, but then words couldn't come to my essays, my journal, my private blog, and so forth. I figured it best I take a look at things.
Flash back to early 2008, I re-welcomed an old friend who usually proves toxic back in February, and although the two of us were confident in our decision to become friends again, we proved ourselves wrong. This would be the 6th time. She got me into some things, led me astray, I got into some trouble, now here I am today.
The troubles I found myself in uprooted me from my home town and transfered me two towns over to where I currently reside with a roommate. I dropped out of the last semester of college, and spent my time doing things I shouldn't have been doing. I burned bridges, and in some cases, ran from failed attempts to do so on purpose
For a long time I would not admit that something wasn't quite right. I had the facts in front of me and chose to look past them. Alas, sometimes you just need to swallow your pride. And so I did. There are always consequences for our mistakes, but if you find a way to deal with them, then life can be regained.
