If I could live my life again, I would be more thankful of the circumstances my life has presented me. It’s almost like saying I would rather not live my life again, but I would do it again. God has blessed me richly with everyone I’ve met, all the events in my life, and all that I’ve seen in my life. I wish I just had been more thankful, appreciated people more, and taken a look around more often.
In our time, we spend so much time looking forward and backward, but we never seem to be caught up in the here and now. Even in my senior year, my time has been dedicated to college when I should be enjoying my last year with people I will never see again. It’s kind of sad to think about; these people I’m never going see again, and I’m blowing right past them, never think about those consequences. I was to make a concerned effort to be with my classmates more.
My parents have been the rock on which I can always count on, even when no one else is there. My mother made a comment the other day; “I don’t know what you could do to make me not love you anymore.” That remark really stuck with me, and I think that’s a great indication of the kind of people my parents are. I have never been in need of anything, and the things I think I “have” to have my parents usually don’t give me, because they know it will make me better in the end. If I had to choose someone I could always depend on, my parents would definitely be it.
The Class of 2009 is a special class. We came in with a terrible reputation, and rightfully so I think, but for the most part we lived that reputation down. We’ve made some great memories, from the dough-throwing incident to the bonfire at Nick’s house. I wish we had more time to spend together, but I wish more that I had hung out with them more than I did. I will never forget the experiences I had, but I think I missed out on some because I was too busy in the whirlwind of life.
