The End Of September

So here we are.  Literally at the end of September and more than a whole year with online classes with DeVry.  It's been a full year.  more than i can say about some of the previous years.  I know most people get sentimental at the end of December when the new year is rearing its face but why should i do that?  Shouldn't we take a look back at our own accomplishments a little more often then once a year?  I understand that there is a lot going on for most people, no reason not to celebrate or learn from what we have done.

So everyone lives in there own world this was more apparent to me last night when, with a couple friends had gone through our high school yearbook (campy and cheesy - I know), when our friend who hadn't graduated with us just pointed out how none of these people meant anything to him or mattered.  This struck me a odd - how could he not know that that guy was awesome, or that girl really did have an amazing smile?  This perception just jostled me into realizing that in all the things I've done - its all important.  It's just all important to me.  well it was important.



How can i make it matter to someone else?  how can i explain my point of view, my logic on a situation?  More importantly - why?  why do i want someone to understand me and my experiences? 



No one will understand all of me, or any of us for that matter.  We are all an accumulation of experiences and we all have had different experiences at different times with different perceptions, emotional and physical impacts that change us forever.  Whether we've been through the ringer with a crazy girlfriend or moved a lot as a kid - we are all different. 



Good news is that i don't want anyone to understand all of me.  It would be scary to think that someone could not only have the same thought process but the same emotional reaction to something.   Besides what could you possibly learn from someone who has had the exact same everything as you?  nothing. 



Now while I possibly got you thinking it's time to do some mindless locust eradication.
