So I had an amazing weekend. It's really been nice to clear my head and allow things to happen and exist around me. The key is not resisting anything. I'm getting better at letting everything happen around me and not let it phase me. There's a fine fine line between apathy and healthy involvement. I want to be a better person for everyone in my life. Aquaintances and good friends, family and co-workers will benefit hopefully. One thing that I haven't been so zen about is my little cousin's (decision) to go to VMI, a military acadamy post high school. Matt is such a good kid, and I'd have no problem with HIS decision. But that's just it, it wasn't his decision. His father, my uncle, is a brain-washing asshole that is living vicariously through his son and it makes me sick. So I opened my mouth to my aunt and to my cousin and it fell upon deaf ears. I'm just really upset that he is going to make a huge step in his life and his heart is not in it. So I guess this is a great example of why being apathetic to everything really isn't the best. That's the fundamental trouble with stoners. Then there are the busy-bodies that play off being uninvolved in drama, but in actuality they are picking fights like a pro. Everything works amazingly when you allow people of both extremes be a part of your life, but never let them get the best of you. Pray for my cousin Matt if you're down with that. If not keep him in your thoughts, I'm really worried about him. Goodnight guys.
