A New Chapter In Life

A long relationship opened my eyes to what I needed to improve. I can list pages and pages of it, but I'm not going to do that. I would have to say that she was my greatest love, but unfortunately, things did not end up like a fairy-tale would usually end, "happily ever after", but instead, it ended up like a text book, you always learn something new out of it. I'm not going to do any bashing because no one needs that in their lives, and we have enough wars going on in this world, so why not promote peace.

I would have to admit that after the break-up, there were some hostel moments and saddened moments, but sometimes break-ups end that way. You can't let that moment give you thoughts of ending your life or thoughts of why you are still in this world because having negative connotations about yourself is not what God has intended for us. Humans are imperfect, full of trial and error, and if you say that you're perfect, you're wrong. Not one single person is. So with these imperfections, we must live with them. And with these trials and errors, we must learn from them. You are always learning something new in everyday life, so in a situation as in a break-up (for example), you're like a driver stuck in a dirt, bumpy road, but eventually, you'll get back on that smooth, asphalt or concrete road. Life is not meant to be like a walk in the park, otherwise, where would the challenge be?

Anyways, life is good...actually life is great! These past 4 days I have been waking up with the biggest, widest smiles on my brownish-yellow mustache having face. The Mohawk is no more, but I can always bring it back. I have grown into a strong-hearted man that thinks, like the Adidas slogan, "Impossible is Nothing." You look at the world today and the people that broke barriers and paved a future for us...the Manny Pacquiao's, the Barack Obama's, the Malcolm X's, the Martin Luther King, Jr.'s! But those are only a few mentioned. But back on topic, like a Keri Hilson song, "Just get back up when it knocks you down." Life is too precious to dwell, so be happy for everyday you live.

To my family (I consider friends as family), I never thanked you for saving my life.

Therefore, I'll leave you with a line from the film Forrest Gump: My momma always said, "Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get."
