Time

I haven't wrote a blog in quite a few days due to some personal reasons, but I am going to try to continue writing again.

A little while ago I got  back from the gym playing basketball. It was only me and two other people in the gym so it was nice just being able to listen to music and do one thing that can always help clear my mind, play some basketball. Don't you just love that moment when your listening to your Ipod so loud that it sounds like it could bust your ear drums, yet you don't care because your in the moment and it makes you forget about everything else that is going on. I love it. I am finally at Ship now for good for a while, and while I know this is going to be a difficult semester for me in some different aspects, I'm ready to keep moving forward.

I named today's Blog, as TIME? Boring title yes, but has meaning behind it. What is the one thing we all have, that we tend to take for granted at times? The answer to that is time. Whether it be spending time with someone we wish we would have more, studying more, working out more at the gym, telling someone you love them, working more on a project, the time is all around us! Before I got on the highway yesterday to drive back to school around 6 p.m. I stopped at a mcdonalds in town to get a sweet tea! As I was going through the drive through to give the girl my $1.06, I asked her how she was doing. She looked at me and literally just said with a smile, "Being the best I can be." I was like, DANG..this girl has probably been working at mcdonalds all day and still has a smile on her face, and doing the best she can. I'm not here writing this to tell someone to spend more time on this and that, I'm just informing everyone that don't forget that while tomorrow the sun will rise, that sometimes the people around us may not exactly be with us. 5 years ago today a friend to many AH passed away. At the time I was in 11th grade, and I didn't know how to react. Someone you see in the hall everyday walking to class, will no longer be there. It was hard to grasp at first, but over time things do get better. Its about making the memories that you do have with friends, family, and loved ones mean the most.

Some that I have talked to  know that I lost someone close to me over break, but I'm writing today to focus on realizing all the people we do have around us in our lives that maybe we don't pay close attention enough to, to take that time out of the day to say a simple hello! We as individuals can't control what goes and comes in our lives, because as hard as it may be to accept it, it is a part of life. No one said it would be easy, so thats why today maybe we can forget about what were going to be doing tomorrow, and focus on today.

Maybe your going through a time in your life where you feel lonely, have hit rock bottom, or that everything is going well, and it can't get better. There is always going to be someone out there that could use a helping hand. Heck, I just left home yesterday and I probably wasn't going to call my mom until tomorrow or a couple days BUT instead I picked up the phone and talked to her for a couple mins on the phone. It's the little things in life, and I am truly starting to realize that now. 

I would like to thank all my friends and family that have been there for me ever in my life, I appreciate you all and know I wouldn't be who I am today or where I am without you all.

I can't believe its already mid January, where has TIME BEEN GOING? No more worrying about time, either way its going to come one way or another. Got to live one day at a time.

Let tomorrow be the start of something great. Maybe your going to get out of bed 5 minutes earlier, maybe your going to go for a long run, maybe your going to sing in the shower loudly and not care about all the people that can hear you..WHO KNOWS.

Only TIME will tell, what are you going to do about it??

You only live once right, sometimes we need a daily reminder of that. Have a great night everyone.

RIP DAD and AM. Been thinking about you two all day. I'll never forget you two, you two have impacted my life in many ways. MISS YOU AND LOVE YOU TWO. **NEVER FORGOTTEN**

On a side note, SLEEPING IN tomorrow...LETS GO!...or should I? No need to waste the entire day
