Well it's 2:13 in the morning and today has been long but amazing as well. Matter of fact this whole weekend has been wonderful. First of all I'd just like to put out my many congratulations to all those that are graduating and having their grad parties. It's awesome to see all my peers being commended for their hard work, and to be honest it's crazy going through these days that I'll honestly never ever have again for the rest of my life. Which makes me think how poopy and monotonous life can really be a majority of the time. I wish I had the energy and charisma to tackle life's circumstances like I do today. The passion and burn inside me has been rekindled by the unity in friendly competition the world cup has brought, and also by just being with friends and not having school. As old chapters come to an end and new ones begin I really do find myself after a long weekend at 2:16 in the morning quite optimistic about life. I really think that these are the times of my life. The days that should be documented and the moments that should be remembered. Sometimes I restrain myself from being because of the rules or the social stipulations on this society, but today is one of those days where I just have to breathe and say you know what... this is what I want and this is who I am. We have the ability to write our own future, to make our own choices, to have our own identity. Though we have this power, it can also cause great stress and strife which I've noticed. If there's one thing I would like to happen for this summer and transitional period it would be just to allow myself to be during these times. To be less subjective and to just take in life and enjoy what it has to offer. So many times I find myself contemplating the stupidest things when honestly it's those stupid things that sometimes make life enjoyable. I don't have to have an answer for everything and I don't have to be strong all the time. I guess I'm learning?
All I know is that these 17 years have accumulated to this very moment to make me who I am. History has made it's way to the year 2010 to give me congratulations on success and usher me into a new state, education, and lifestyle. I've never been so excited to be alive in such a while and I honestly can wait 'til summer's over because this one's gonna be one for the record books. At the end of the day I love people and I love whatever that magic is inside all of us that makes us unique and utterly unbearable at times. Why you may ask? Because if everything was easy, there'd be no such thing as success, triump, or victory. Without the dreams that have been embedded in our hearts, we would not have been able to see our way through the trials and troubles this life has thrown at us. So today I give thanks to God and all those who have made me who I am and have encouraged me to live and to be, because without you, Mervyn Egerton LeRoy Levy III would just be a name, instead of a complete person.
Keep The Peace
