I never use this anymore because I've got nothing interesting to say. No, really.
I've got a job at an amazing hotel (St. Regis) in a spa with Kamilla. I'm doing incredibly well in school (sans astronomy). My relationship with my parents is better than ever. My relationships with my friends is incredible (minus a few people who I rarely speak to/see and wish I did, but it's okay). When life is good, no one seemingly has anything to say.
Why is that? I know for such a long time I've focused on all of the negative aspects of my life and never the positive. But right now, I've got nothing to complain about and it's an indescrible feeling. I think it's just part of growing up, and I'm glad. I'm not proud of the things I've done in the past or the cruel things I've said about people or the times I've judged. I hate being judged so I don't know why it's taken me so long to realize that the old golden rule "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" is still accurate.
Again, I think it's just part of growing up.
We've all made bad choices, said things we shouldn't have, and acted in ways we shouldn't have.
All I can do is be remorseful, apologize to those I've offended, and hope for the best.
If that doesn't mend things then so be it.
I think the hardest thing I've had to learn this year is you can't make everyone like you. There will always be some people who don't like who you are or how you act no matter how nice or how compromising you are.
I can't change other people, just myself. But, that's okay with me.
Do you wonder where the self resides?
Is it in your head or between your sides?
And who will be the one who will decide its true location?
