Son in the future, Son in the past
seeing a new what once has past
return him now to once he came
right where he left, all now the same
Over the past few years I have learned a lot about myself and the type of person I want to be, and what direction I want to go in my life. I have had many experiences and accomplished a lot. Some of these experiences have been very rewarding, and others after left me very numb, and hurt. I have learned from all of my experiences, for better or for worse. I am lucky though, I always have my health and my career, and the greatest group of friends a guy could ever want. I have accepted myself for who I am, and I truly don’t care if anyone else accepts me or not, other then those who are close to me. I have learned that life is an endless journey. We are always having new experiences, exposing ourselves to new ideas. I have discovered however it’s what we do with that new found knowledge that makes the difference. It is an easier road traveled that is lived in ignorance, and a much harder and rewarding one for those who choose to fight, to go beyond just surviving day to day, or giving up. We all have dreams, and they should be followed, even if someone else doesn’t agree, or think it isn't worth while. It is your dream and it is up to you to follow it and fight to live and not exist. The world truly owes us no favors, and if we want better for ourselves then it is up to us to make it happen. Follow your dreams and follow your heart, and you will be a much happier person. Don't be afraid to go against the norm, or the stereotypes and the rest of the bullshit we put on ourselves. Fight your ego, control it don't let it control you. Live life and enjoy your winnings, but don't forget that you learn more from your mistakes, and heartaches. Be yourself and not what others expect or think you should be. Be honest with yourself and the person next to you always, honesty brings trust and understanding. Stand up for yourself. Cherish your friends, there the ones who will fight for you, and stand by you through thick and thin! It seems we spend so much time on the material, and the physical, but what about the emotional, and the spiritual, and the things that truly make us who we are? Rebel against ego, break the cycle, and take the time to love the people in your life, and to love yourself. And remember, the best things in life are the things we fight for and work are asses off for, not those things that are just handed to us. We respect what we earn, and we cherish it even more if we have to work for it. Life isn't easy and we may all be thrown a few curve balls from time to time, but we face nothing we can't over come. Respect and love the relationships that you have in your life. Relationships with others help build our persona. There are those relationships that open you up to something new and exciting.... those that are old; that bring up lots of questions...... those that bring you some place unexpected........ those that take you far from where you started.... and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging, and significant relationship of them all is the one you have with yourself, and if you are lucky enough find the one to love the you that you love, well then that is just fabulous!
I cannot see our future clear
Or think beyond this cloud
I think the hardest part in this
Is never knowing why,
I have to be courageous
And I have to say goodbye.
For if I let myself admit
It’s time to let you go;
I’d have to face reality
