Life Wasted

If I asked you "What was the proudest moment in your life?" or "What's your most prized possession?" the majority (if not all) of you would have an answer. How about "What's the best thing that happened in your life so far?" Me? Well, I'm feeling pretty insignificant right now.

My proudest moment would be graduating college, but how many people do that? My most prized possession would be my dog, but does that even count? The best thing that happened in my life? The reality slap I got a few years back that set me back on course from the seemingly never-ending downward spiral I was skiing.

I'm glad my life is going well, this is the happiest and most content I've felt since I was a teenager, but now it's time to start doing more things. This refrigerator box that I've been living in needs to burn. The bridges with people I know that lead no-where need to burn. It's time to broaden my horizons and see what else is out there. You're either with me, or you're on your own. I don't have time, nor do I want to make time, for those that have no ambition in life. If you're happy with where you're at, great. Just realize that there's always room for improvement.

You can't help people that don't know they're broken.
You can't break people that are strong.
