Every few years I feel the need to see what else is out there. In the past, it has caused my friends to grow up, while I reset and spin in the same circuit redundantly. Every time I hear about their lives and success, I smile and shed a tear. Every single one of them has deserved the respect and happiness they have found. I don't live in regrets, and I'm not jealous or green. I just know my life is different, and I still have things to earn. I don't care if it takes years away from me, I've always believed that the end didn't matter. Live every day not for the future, my father always told me. And everyday I spend here, I've never been happier.
