Life

Life is a mystery. If you would have asked 4 weeks ago how I felt about life I would have said it is scary and intimidating. But now I look at life as an opportunity and experience. Soon to be laied off. Ok. No new job in the making. Girlfriend gone, but not forgotten. Okay. But I look ahead now. It's not the end of the world as I once thought. I Know I am smart and talented. I Know J. and are still in a decent friendship. I now Know that things are not as bad as they seem. Why should I limit myself to only one company and expect everything to come of that? I have come to understand that life is limited in time and time shouldn't be a difinitive of 30. I'll allow myself to show myself depression and now come out on my own. Life is what you make of yourself and what you allow your talents to be realized. I may never find my own self as a history teacher, but I will be able to express and interact with people that understand that my opinion matters. I may never be a master carpenter, but I do have the skills to question them. I may never be an expert salesman but I do know the right and wrong way to approach a customer. The point is life is not simple and life skills are sometimes non-quantitative. The true question is qualitative value of the person in question. Any one of us could be me in a different way, but what is your different way?
