Approximately 10,621,000 minutes ago I was born. The fact
that that is over 20 years now amazes me. The fact that that fact amazes me
also amazes me but I don’t want to get in an infinite loop of being amazed. The
thing that amazes me the most about all of this is that in my twenty years I
never could have told you that this is where I would be. Why I could never have
told you that is more interesting though because it is not only because I am
not psychic but because I don’t know where I am right now. I could tell you a
lot about how I got here, key landmark changes in my life, and what makes me
tick but I don’t know where I am. I don’t know how far I have come in the
journey of life or how far I am going to go. I have been thinking about this a
lot since a classmate of mine from high school died recently. He was one of
those kids that knew everyone and yet had some of the tightest best friends
ever. The only close interaction I had with him was freshman year in biology.
He was my partner for a little bit until my grade started to suffer and my
teacher could tell that it wasn’t my fault. The teacher gave us new partners
and I never worked any closer with him again. Even being only that close with
him I have felt the touch of his death in my life. I have talked about starting
a blog just so I can write stuff out and seeing that it is New Years, I figured
no time better then a new beginning to start this. The coming posts will
probably be a little more topic specific or day to day things that have been
going through my head that I want to make sure to get down on paper so I don’t
lose it in my head. So times I wish that I had a better way to organize the
thoughts in my head. This will hopefully just be a better system for using the
organization that is already there. Looking forward to doing more with this but
for now it is 3:12 A.M. on Jan 1st and I feel I should stop writing
and go to bed.
