Appreciate

Appreciate what you have before it is gone.

Do what you can do, before you are unable to do so.

Spend time with those you care about.

Back when I was a freshman, I used to wonder if life was only downhill from then. In my case, I think not. I look around me, and I can see why others would take the alternative approach. My life, however, seems to build on a few select great relationships that I steamroll into the essence of who I am. I am Glen. It's not about who you think you are, its more than that.

In life, we choose who we want to be. I carried this conversation with a girl earlier today that was making decisions that I knew she was going to regret 5 years from now. It was in my best interest to encourage her to make those decisions for fear of her flipping out on me. This is how I operate. When dealing with people that make me feel uncomfortable, I tend to make jokes that they cannot relate to in the effort to get them to walk away from me. Also, I will leave without looking back.

I've just realized I have nothing to say of any significance. If I had one piece of wisdom, it would not amount to much more than... You have one life, it's a journey; make those around you happy and you will be as well.
