| For many of us, we are lucky enough to go through school just because everyone else is doing it. After Junior High, we enter High School. We pick the best college that accepts us and walk away with a piece of paper that you paid 4 years time plus thousands of dollars to get.
I guess my family was so blessed during my youth. All of my parent's siblings were lucky enough to have parents that worked hard to make a good income. Unfortunately for my generation, most of us did not live up to that expectation. I guess the recession has caused my Uncles/Aunts to become more worried about themselves than the "family". I've learned to rejoice when they do well and feel sympathy when issues rise.
20 years ago, being unskilled and a hard worker could get you anywhere in the business. Today, that would get you a seat next to depression. What I'm saying is, if you have graduated from college, it's not too late to mature and take your life seriously. There's always room to grow until you quit on yourself. If you are in college or younger, start viewing life in the big picture. Your friends, your career, and what you really want to live for in your daily interactions. Life is short, but not short enough to let it go to waste.

| I think one of the hardest things for me right now, is admitting I'm wrong. To say "I'm sorry" are the two or three hardest words for me. I'm not sure how I became so stubborn, but it just seems easier to shrug off problems. I think I've come to a point in my life where I can't afford to make any more mistakes. Where, when I make mistakes and knowing that I screwed up, hurts me emotionally. I go through anger, hate, and depression. Just very unsure of how to react anymore. I really don't understand God's grace sometimes.

| It's been 5 months since I've graduated and it has been rough with the job search. Partly, because I'm lazy and feel adequate most of the time. I guess looking through pictures of myself desires to be lively again. To be able to live life with a bigger impact. I'm content with the way things are, but there's always hope for something better. The hope of a more comfortable life, a secure one. I still have a few interviews left. Pray for me if you would.

Some of you may appreciate this.
P.S. I wouldn't suggest drinking a whole bottle of water if you're not thirsty. water becomes less appealing.

I'm not sure what I would be thinking if I was wrongly convicted of a murder for 9 years. I'd probably convince myself to believe that I committed the crime. Maybe prison wouldn't be so bad.
