reflections

the other day i took a moment to go back to the start of this blog and read it through.

my first thought was that i am a truly sick individual and i firmly believe i require the help of a team of therapists working round the clock.

but that said. it was kind of interesting to go through the journey again. to remember some of the joys and of course relieve some of the lows.

i am hopeful that i have grown as a person in the six years i have been doing this. but it truly is hard to notice your growths, particularly when you are distracted by your short comings.

one of the things i couldn't help but notice was the people who were there in the beginning who aren't here now. some by their choice, some by mine and some by circumstance.

i can't really say what i believe, or if i believe in any official religious deity. but i am a firm believer that there is a plan, that certain people enter and exit your life to teach you things or to put you on the path you are supposed to travel.

with that thought i can't be heartbroken about those who are gone. i can only hope that i made the most of the lessons they were here to teach me.

This is extremely profound, in its entirety. But I find that last paragraph particularly moving....
