There are plenty of things in life the give me immense joy. Family for one and finding fulfillment in life is the other. I originally started this blog during troubling times in my freshman year of college. I was actually the smartest or the brightest then. I was so fixated on finding the perfect girl and having that movie star college life. Sure it had it moments. I wasn't even 19 at the time and fast forward five years later at 24, I still don't have it all together. At this point in my life all of my grandparents are deceased. I'm haunted by the relationships I truly wanted but felt I didn't quite deserve. I have ran and hid from responsibilities I needed to do, and neglected crucial moments that needed my undivided attention.
Fortunately I graduated from college with very few problems but a lot of added frustration. I spent too much time dwelling on things that really didn't matter. I was too afraid to make the big changes I needed to make. I came short on the things I wanted to truly do. The best thing about myself today is that I am always willing to learn and make adjustments. When I need to learn a new skill, I prepare for it. When things that are unexpected arise, I step up to the challenge. It has been a big part of me growing up. I am definitely a lot wiser and more dedicated then I was in the past. However, I am still my number one critique. I know what will bring me down and ultimately what will bring me back up.
Always and forever,
Just Dave
