sitting at D's graduation
I imagined how high school would be were I the person I am today. Comparing me then and me now got me into some deep reflective thought. I'd be more daring, acting with fewer reservations of self-doubt, which would've really helped, come relationships. I think I was a little more optimistic back then, however. Perhaps in some part it was due to the absence of the fear of chaotic uncertainty in the near future. I had a few years of high school ahead of me and then at least a few of college, before that would come. Don't get me wrong, I'm still hopeful for myself and our world. I'm just not quite the hippie--not synonymous with stoner--mind I was back then. I suppose a somewhat natural progression.
