been thinking and understanding a lot lately.

i realize that situations are looked at differently from every perspective.

people all have their own ideas and beliefs and no one has any right to tell them that they are wrong.

people deal with the circumstances they are put in to the best of their ability whether they realize it or not.

people are forever changing both in a negative and positive way.

happiness is situational.



thanks to the graduating class serving as a constant reminder that we are getting older and will soon be "adults," i am becoming more and more nervous but also accepting. i realize that there is nothing i can do to prevent the coming of time, nor can i change the things in my past. all i can do is try to affect as many of the people who i am close to in a positive way, and try to leave them happier and more satisfied than when i met them. i feel as though im reaching a turning point in my life and i hope to utilize this summer not only for recreation and relaxation, but also for realization and soul searching. i still do not know who i am or who i want to be, but i feel as though im closer to knowing than i ever have been before.
