Hard to believe how quickly the past four years have passed. In fact, I'm not really sure if I do believe it.
Four years ago I was a ninth grader, just about to drop out of private school for good. I hated just about everything at that point in time, and was about to enter the worst summer of my life, followed by the worst school year of my life.
Yeah.
Fast forward to today. I stepped out of my car and thought "Wow, this is the first time in four years I've been this happy with my life." Then I tripped and fell face first on to concrete. But you know what? I didn't care. I laughed.
Which is good. I think.
I think last Memorial day weekend, exactly one year ago, was the turning point. It's when I started on my whole turning-negatives-into-a-positive kick. Since, I've written songs about everything. And I do mean everything. A little over 50 have been finished since then.
Looking over it, this post is kind of just random reflection. But it's proof that it is possible to move on. Which I am proudly doing.
Inspirational. ;) I'm happy to hear that things have turned around for you... being able to enjoy your life and be happy where you are is one of the greatest feelings ever.
ReplyDeleteWorking on getting to that point myself. ;P
It's difficult to find, but a great place to be :)
