'where It All Begun'
We reminisced about years long gone tonight
and one thing became crystal clear,
that even with the hardships
and all the madness
we became adults that can keep our heads high -
We didn't have the best of everything
tough times and mistakes made
didn't keep us down
it never determined who we'd be
All the high school drama of
stay a ways and walk outs
could have made us falter
the guys and their strawberry house
the girls and their adult movies
We can laugh about the madness now
they are all fond memories
all part of what makes us the adults we are today
I salute you guys for never giving up
for being the best you can be
because you came from humbled beginnings
and you never forgot where everything started...
Hence your appreciation for the blessings today!
*Inspired by a get together with some of my high school friends*
