Today, I turn to blogging again.
Much as I did not want to abandon this hobby, I drifted.
I admit I drifted. And I want back.
This had been such a pure form of release.
And looking back, I could see that I was a happy kid.
I was either animated or annoyed, never sad.
Those were the simple pleasures of the past, the past I want to grip tightly to.
People will like to look back in their lives and question, "Have I changed much these past 5 years? Was it for the better or worse?" And having a blog makes this review a simple challenge.
I don't know for sure if it was for better or worse, but I had grown. Entering the workforce, I am now fully financially responsible for myself, and the future I'd like to build. Whatever which I want to have in the future, I have to start planning for it (and discount it to net present value Ha. Ha.)
I am finally... free. In a sense. I lead my life now. And I own it. If I want to quit my job and move to New York tomorrow... I can. If I want to send all the helpless strays to vets and shelters now... I can. (Thankfully I haven't seen many helpless animals around these days)
And that.. is liberating.
That, is growing up.
