4 Remaining.

With every day, comes a new stress, with every breathe comes closer to death. And all the mistakes you've made in the past just become repeats when you're falling apart. Never again would I make those same mistakes. Never again would I want to relive this. Never again.

Choices I've made, despicable. Acquiantances I've made, disposable. Friends I've made, I'll miss you dearly. With every breath taken, I feal its a breath wasted. Time spent without you, is just time spent. And without you all I've have never made it this far. Simply amazing.

All material things made, are material things lost. Those things are left behind... people however, I never want to leave. All and all, its petty. All the things I've thought about... trivial. What's important we often take for granted. And its those things, we'll miss the most.

Some things will just never change... but some things I guess I'll never know. With life, nothing can be expected. And those who fail, were looking for handouts. Tough breaks come when you work the hardest, and yet you fail. Just hope that the time you fail, you have the will to get back up. Whether or not I'll get back up... questionable.

If you've ever been speechlessly frustrated, you know how it feels. If you've ever been backed into a corner backwards and blind in the dark... you understand how lost I am. Please let me be found. And please let me find the light within; because any longer... and I will never see again. I feel like... just breaking down... and staying here forever.

All and all, its like... being so hurt; but not being able to find the wound. Knowing you've wronged, but cant find a right. Worked so hard, only to be shot down. Being so lost, and there seems to be no way. Surrounded by a million people, yet no one I know. Having so much, yet nothing at all... Do you ever feel that way? No more... please...

I feel like dissapearing, just like my world is. I just want... to turn away. Would you miss me?

5 Remaning.

What's inevitable now is falling apart, frustration and fear. To live in fear, I would rather not live... and to fall apart... I wish I could put myself back together. When all this comes to late, its like developing a hundred more regrets. Where every sixty seconds I'm thinking about my death, its a minute less I'm living, and a minute I'm sad is a piece of an hour I could have been happy.

Live like you're going to die tomorrow. I'm sorry that that's a reality some of us may see. But whats stopping some of us... what keeps us living, is the faith. The drive. The need to live untill tomorrow. The want to be that something. The want to be with that someone. The seconds, minutes, hours, days.. years you want to spend with them. Don't take advantage, don't take for granted, and definitely take all the time you have.

Fate works in mysterious ways, but trust fate, for fate and yourself is all you can trust, and for certain, you can't control what fate is going to slap you with. Thank fate for you. And thank you for what you've given me. Faith. Every moment is treasured. Simply amazing. These are going to be 5 long days.

10 Remaining.

Finals are creeping up and sweeping past me, and when these examinations finish, I'll go through the biggest test of my life, both emotionally and metally, this challenge may be the biggest final for me. Finally closure. Finally results which influence my life. It's not just a grade, its a future.

I paid for tickets 80 days ago... who knows what will come of it. Hopefully it's paying for a change. It's time for a change. Time for a new development. 10 reasons for each day why I need to go away...

Should I leave, and things fall apart, I'll value most what I've left behind. Sometimes it takes a little seperation to understand appreciation. Should I leave, maybe it opens doors and closes the gates I never wish to open, behind the doors, I find the path to my future, behind the gates, I leave behind what can no longer get me. Should I leave, maybe I'll change, I'll mature, I'll fufill myself. Should I leave, maybe I'll realize, what I'm meant to be. Should I leave, maybe I'll think, maybe I'll realize our position in time. Should I leave, I'll finally be able to sleep at night. Should I leave, I'll finally get a break. Should I leave, maybe I'll find my true friends. Should I leave, maybe... you'll realize how it feels to be left behind. Should I leave... I may never come back.

And finally, something may be changing... but suddenly I'm leaving it behind, with hope its something I'll come back to, someone I'll come back to. Someone who this time will be here for me... and someone who will make the change with me. Because this time, I realized why I'll never forget you. Because this time I realized, what you've always wanted.

Six years ago, we had a good year. Six years ago, five of us made a decision. Six years ago, you were there for me. Six years ago, I was there for them. And finally, at the end of that year I've realized all that happened. Six years ago, I shot for standards which were lower than I assumed, because those standards stooped lower than I assumed. Six years ago, everything changed. Six years ago, I was forced to grow up.

Five years ago, you took something that mattered. Five years ago, they took me. Five years ago, we parted once. Five years ago we drifted apart. Five years ago, the cycle began. Five years ago I got hurt. Five years ago, I felt no fear. Five years ago, I felt nothing. Five years ago, nothing else mattered. Five years ago, childhood was stolen from me.

Four years ago, we fell apart. Four years ago, numbers increased. Four years ago, things got rough. Four years ago, I led them. Four years ago, no one was with me. Four years ago, I found no support. Four years ago, you fell apart. Four years ago, I followed suit. Four years ago, they betrayed me. Four years ago, you hurt me most. Four years ago, things fell apart. Four years ago, I made a decision. Four years ago, I began a legacy. Four years ago, you left me. Four years ago, I started remembering. Four years ago... everyone hurt me.

Three years ago, I might have looked forward. Three years ago, things made me angry. Three years ago, you made me angry. Three years ago, nothing had changed me. Three years ago, I made a change. Three years ago, I tried to develop. Three years ago, I failed miserably. Three years ago, I met acceptance. Three years ago, it all came back. Three years ago, I tried to run. Three years ago, it caught up. Three years ago, mistakes were plentiful. Three years ago, I seeked refuge.

Two years ago, they came back. Two years ago, I realized they'd never left. Two years ago, I thought I knew it all. Two years ago, you came back into my life. Two years ago, I wished you'd never left. Two years ago, I was angry you came back. Two years ago, I wish I'd have left. Two years ago, I didn't care. Two years ago, I got betrayed. Two years ago, I fell apart. Two years ago, I couldn't see ahead. Two years ago, you dissapeared.

One year ago, things were changing. One year ago, I wanted change. One year ago, they began to realize. One year ago, I finally made progress. One year ago, I started seeing the future. One year ago, I found faith. One year ago, I started getting lost. One year ago, I met confusion. One year ago... I felt empty.

Through this year, things came back. Things left. People changed. Opinions changed and so did my vision. This year, I made decisions. This year, I realized. This year I believed. This year, faith didn't fail me. This year, things got better. This year things are coming together. This year, I build the future.

Today, things get complicated as I prepare for my change. Today, things are tough enough without reminders. Today, I remember. Today, I feel fear. Today, I want tomorrow. Today, I realize that I won't forget. Today, I realize why things have occured. Today, I realize why we never changed. Today, I realize why I want change. Today, I realized what I really want. Today, I hope. Today, I seek to find what I've searched for. Today... I want you to realize.

What I remember? Where I went wrong. What I regret? Nothing. Why? Experience was essential.

I want to come back. I want to fufill. I want to meet the future. I want life. I want normality. I want what I can never have. I want stability. I want trust. I want most of all, support. I want... it to slip away. I want revenge. I want to forget. I want to rest in peace.

Few hours since my last blog, I've reached another realization. Courage is found in many places, but we need to realize, that courage starts in ourselves.

When no one believes in you, believe in yourself. When you feel like no one can help you help yourself. As much as we like to depend on others... sometimes the only one we can count on is ourselves. Not to say that certain individuals aren't there for you, just sometimes only you can save yourself. Even heaven can't save those who are unwilling to be saved. You make yourself who you are. It doesn't matter how much people put you down, or what society defines as beautiful, smart or perfect. You in yourself are special in your own ways, and the only person you need to please is yourself. If you find you aren't who you want to be, something is wrong, and something needs to change. Courage starts within.

It starts with one thing, just one comment, or one vision, and it grows. It doesn't need to be much... just a little motivation to change, then that motivation builds and gains momentum, then it can't be stopped. The lion's roar is a sound, but backed by the teeth. We're all lions, its whether or not we roar. Do people fear us? We all have the potential, we all have the strength but we on our own need to practice, need to perfect our roar. Maybe then we can scare off criticism. Maybe then we can see ourselves as strong. Maybe then we are the best we can be.

Find the courage to be what we want to be. Sooner or later you'll learn to let go of the bumps in the road and the criticism you've recieved. The things that are important are within us. Sometimes it takes courage to drop certain things, to erase the past, to build the future. But a wall you've broken down to rebuild is often stronger when completed. If what you've previously been living has been a lie, breaking this down can only be a positive.

Seek not the courage in others, courage is within, and from others it will find you. Kind words are nice but word's arent hands to hold onto, take the hands when offered because they aren't afraid you'll pull them down, but realize as well, these are the hands of support, you don't need them; they're just nice to have around. You're strong. We all carry the same brain, the same mental capacity and therefore the same strength. The sun shines regardless, our life is meant to impact others, do not be shaken or your influence is lost in the vibrations of life. Make the biggest impact you can, hit and stop being hit. Tuck emotion under the rug and be all you can be and don't look back, I promise, we won't stir up the past, as it is forgotten.

It's two weeks today, the end of something tough, the end of something great, the beginning of something phenomenal. In life and death, our accomplishments in life measure our value. Not the clothes we wear, the car we drive... not the money we have or the money we don't have. Material is not what we take with us, what matters is the legacy we leave behind. Should I die tomorrow, mourn me not. Measure my life by the accomplishments I've done and remember how I've touched you. Remember what I've taught you.

Money is something man made, we were born without it. We were born innocent and naked. Unfortunately, we die corrupt and in clothes our money bought. In some causes, in clothes corrupt society purchased for us. Don't clothe yourselves in dirty laundry society attempts to wrap you in. Fight it and be your own person. Do something for the world. Don't wait to be spoon fed an ideology, and most definitely don't spoon feed someone else the load of crap you've been swallowing. Attempt to wash away the dirt that's accumulated on yourself daily. Cleanse yourself of corruption.

God washed the feet of his diciples washing away the dirt collected on the path of life. Just as God washed those feet, we need to wash our own. Cleanse ourselves. Material is insignificant, its what can't be purchased that has value. It's the cleaning process that we can pride ourselves in when we leave this world clean, unashamed and pure as we got here.

Live life as yourself, but live life selflessly. Smile's are free, but worth so much. Sometimes its these things that are priceless. To children who laugh over 300 times a day, we see such an unshatterable glow of happiness and an inevitable recovery from sadness which belong to them. As adults, we laugh an average of 30 times a day, often case less. And that is the reason for sadness, depression and a seriousness we know all too well. Give someone a smile, a laugh, and something to remember, its worth it.

Don't suppose I'll ever know what it means to be a man, and its something I can't change but I'll live around it and try my best to be the best man I can. Do the best I can for the world. Be remembered for what I've done to improve the quality of living around me. Make a change, and be the best you can be. Life can't be measured by the wrapping tape you pull off your brand new Möbler sofa, but it can be measured by all the red tape you broke in life. Names engraved in history along with the dead and gone upperclass society such as... sorry riches don't tend to be remembered.

Who've been remembered? Marx, Lenin, Che, revolutionaries. Revolutionize. Be remembered.

A lot has happened in the last couple weeks, and I've been lost in all I've crashed into. A lot has changed in my world, but reality is, tomorrow should be be so fortunate we'll all wake up to the same sky, and sleep to the same stars. There are times even the stars refuse to shine for me... and these were those times.

As the departure comes closer, this trip, soul seeking journey... or this adventure seems like one that worries me in the back of my mind. I hope this isn't good bye to any of you, just good bye to a part of me. Let me return with a soul.

As we learn to crawl, then walk we gradually learn to support ourselves and we learn to let go. Then when we're old... we find support again. Refuse to find support, I refuse to hold on... and I strive to let go. Reject failure. Even the best fall down some times, its how we get up, how we fight to get up, our drive to achieve, and then finally, its our push to go on living. Theres no difference how weak you are, or where you are in the world, once you win this struggle, the stars are that much more satisfying when you know they shine for you.

Night and day are the same around the world, for the rich, for the poor, for the living. Let you always be priviledged to see the night sky. To see the stars shine bright, and the sun rise strong. Remember as humans we have no right to judge and the stars shine for all of us. Cherish the fact that no matter where we are, theres always something above us. The sky that blankets us, and the heavens that surpass us. Though our individual peace of sky may occasionally be cloudy, it will blow over and the stars will be visible. They're always there... just not always in view.

Play connect the dots with the stars until the sun rise, and chase the sun into the moon and the clouds past the horizon. Draw connections to other people, make the journey and point out nature's beauty. Live not in ignorance, but live with attention, see what's beyond and reach for what's distant. Sometimes the best things are what you work for, and the greatest feeling is getting them. You have truly learned when you have experienced, so experience it. Carry your self, your friends are companions on this journey, be not a burden but take support when necessary and give in when you're strongest. Sometimes a walk alone leaves you lost, cold and helpless. Guiding lights can be found, they're usually in a place called hope; often located in other people. Even when all seems helpless, someone is there for you, recognize this.

Let fate decide not our lives. Let us follow our desires. Should fate have me die tomorrow, let me feel fufilled. Have not regrets. Have not desires. Have fufillment. Do not leave until tomorrow what you can delegate today, as tomorrow is often taken for granted. The best sunrises are those which you watched sunset and waited for sunrise to compare to. What you have worked and waited for, the most anticipated are the finest moments. What makes the differentiations from carbon to diamond is millions of years... and timless polishing. The time, patience and work is immesureable, much like the gleam a diamond shows as the light is captured within it. Live life to the fullest, as living it half full is missing out on half the glass. To live in fear, is to not live at all. To live in expectation, is to live in mediocrity. Live in anticipation of better things, and find them for yourselves. Being able to get them makes allows you to say you've deserved them.

Thank you for being there for me. The heavens shine for all of us and I hope they shine finer for you, thank you for enjoying it with me. Thanks for connecting the dots with me, because without you, the picture is lost.
