Two and Twenty

Oct 02, 2006 08:41

Another birthday passed without much fuss. I got pretty much everything I was wanting, A a good dinner, cake & ice cream, getting to chill with Piper for a bit, all good. I lacked cards however. I thouroughly enjoy cards, and only wound up with one from the Momma. It had Pepe LePew on it, though, so that makes up for it.

Well, I'm officially in my prime. There's not another birthday left to look forward to. I have maybe another ten to twenty years to make something of this existence, before I start getting "Old". I would be tempted to panic or frenzy, or feel anxious about the time slowly dripping away.

But I'm not. I'm going to savor life. Every second of every minute of every day, I want to be caught up in the joys and beauties of the world. I'll make my way, and I'll make my time what I want.

There's too much clutter as it is. Too many things that occupy my mind. Sure, everyone needs a hobby, maybe something to collect, but I have far too many. There's not enough hours in my life to read every comic, play every video game, watch every movie.

I'm going to figure out exactly what I want to concentrate on. Sadly, I can't live a seperate life for each of my interests, I can't be an actor, musician, and an artist, at least not in the same degree to each, so I find myself faced with a choice.

My only regret is that I didn't make the decision to live for the sake of life a long time ago. I've spent so much time just living for junk.

Here's to the chance that I may be allowed to make up for what I've ignored.

Love, you all.
