Entry 1: Defying the Rift of Adolescence and Adulthood

My father once told me that the human brain doesn’t fully mature until about the age of 23. This is when a young man or woman begins to settle in the mindset they will be in the rest of their lives. I look back at what he said as I now feel that time is upon me, even though parts of me still hold on the the wild adolescent past.

It feels like merely yesterday, somewhere in between my last days in high school and my so called college life experience. These were days filled with parties and fun, friends and girlfriends came and gone as fast as the beer did. It was a time I miss but yet a time I don’t feel is me anymore. I find myself wanting something real, something tangible. I am at the point where I just want to be that guy in my mid twenties just trying to make it by. If I am going to make it by, this is going to be the year. This is the year where all my reckless past should finally stop haunting me and where this slump I have been in within the last 2 years will finally pass.

I leave this all to say that tomorrow is a new day. I am finally doing things to better myself. Finally being the person I want to be. Everyday on this path feels like a brighter a better day.
