Where I’m From
I'm from life struggles and grateful moments
Sacrifice of a mundane life along with the pride of the military
Different climates: immensely colorful skies, starry skies, sunsets, then sunrises, full moons, colorful moons, time freezing scenes;
the things I remember most
Being close to nature; a perspective I could never get in another circumstance
Events of reality that have allowed me to mature at an unusually fast rate even though I am, for the most part, immature:
Immersing myself in fantasy to drown out the real world
Developing the desire to be succesful in life; independant
Finally coming out socially and cherishing friends that cared about me first; showed me how to care
Present times that I know I will miss farther down the road:
Amazing school community that has greatly influenced my character; wouldn't be the same without having experienced this
So grateful for these times
Learning to make beautiful sounds; developing passions and the greatest of bonds; making another family
Dark stadiums where we anticipate the guarenteed accomplishments of our never-ending work
More skies in October as we effortlessly march, creating beautiful shapes
Braving to ask the one who cares about me to be with me
Growing and feeling loved everyday
Being alone and feeling the happest I've ever felt before, forgetting all my problems in that moment
Helping through hard times with family; helping me become independant
Dark nights in the unusual warm winter where we both try to be ourselves; afraid of losing each other, but both planning to stay with each other
Changing me and my hesitant perspective of the future
