Hi everybody, and by everybody I mean no one since I have no friends on this site yet. I just need a place to vent and I guess this is as good a place as any.
I'm happy.
There I said it. Is my life perfect? Nope. Do I have no worries? Nope, I have plenty of those.
So why am I happy? Because for every crappy thing I have in my life, for every worry I have, I have a dozen things to be thankful for. I suspect that in future journal entries I might spend a lot of time complaining and bitching about different things in my life but I guess what I need to remember is that my life is good and that I am happy and I shouldn't forget that.
I guess I should start be listing the people and things I'm thankful for.
My Parents. Without them there would be no Me. And I don't mean that in the obvious way. They are the ones that taught me right from wrong. They showed how to love. Both others and myself. They taught me to to treat everyone as equals but that does not mean that we should not always strive to be our best. As role models I couldn't ask for any better. does that me they have never made mistakes? Heck no. But I can always work things out with them. They are really amazing people and I really hope they know that.
My Sister, Vanessa. She's truly amazing. I'm so proud of her. We're two completely different people but I get the feeling that we're 2 sides of the same coin. Deep down I think we're very much alike. I want the best for her and I hope she has a great life, I'm very proud to be a part of it.
My girlfriend, Lauren. What can I say. She saves me every day. I love her with all my heart. I don't even want to think about a life without her in it. She makes me smile like no one else can. She understands who I am. I mean she really understands. There is not a second that I'm with her that I am not myself. She is my best friend. I want to be a better person for her. I want to be the best person for her. She makes me want to be a great man while making me feel like I already am one. I can face anything life throws at me as long as she stands with me and I promise to stand with her as she deals with all of life's obsticals.
My friends. All of them. Matt, Andy, Rachael, Christy, Sean, Wesley, Alex, Chris, Jenny, John, and every else that has added so much meaning to my life. (I'm going to feel so bad about any names I missed, but please don't think it means you aren't important to me.) Matt and Andy especially have been there for the long haul. My sense of humor comes from them. It's amazing to have such good friends that I have never fought with and always shared a laugh with. They are brothers to me. Rachael, has also because like a sister to me.
the Noias. Joe, Jeff, Fernanda, Krystal. They are my second family. They have always welcomed me into their home and treated me as there own. I am thankful to have them in my life. Thank you for always encouraging my behavior.
Damn, that's already so much to be thankful for. I guess that's enough for today. Heck, that's really all I need. What else can a person ask for other than great people in their life.
for now I'm off to bed.
Over and out,
