Life -a mode or manner of existence, as in the world of affairs or society
Went to Panama City Beach for the first time last weekend and had a blast with my old/new friends. Got a text at 4pm, left work at 5pm, in my car at 6pm and on my way. It was an escape from everything and much needed.
Many things are up in the air right now but I'm trying my best to stay grounded. Might be out of school in two more semesters if I work my hiney off...yes!
I don't know what the future holds. It could hold anything in the world... our dreams, hopes, fears... any of them. Who am I to try and compete with that? With fate? With our given path? I can't. My thought patterns change daily just like yours do.
If I knew what was meant to be I could give everyone the answers. Tell my best friends who they will marry. Tell my sister what college she'll go to. Tell myself that everything will be okay and that yes, I can make it and succeed in whatever I set my mind to and love/broken hearts is what life deals you.
This is life. And what I've learned: it goes on. With our without people you love, with or without jobs, with or without money...this is just life.
As for today? I'm living. Breathe in, breathe out. That's all there is to it.

a pile of ashes, each a memory distraught, all the times we feared losing each other, we got into arguments and fought, a brisk wind grabs the few on the top, we know it will end some day, but we know we dont want it to stop, another sleepless night, another stupid fight, the wind carries away the ashes from the middle, as the pile disappears, the pain begins to come to us a little, as the hands open up to the sky, and the ashes fly, we watch the past disappear, but we will always wonder why, why would we end something so soon, and not bother to ask why, as the ashes blow away with the wind, its the end, but another chance to begin, because once u opened ur hands up to let the ashes free, i was standing behind u to catch them so you will never forget me --AMS 4/2004
