Its all in the journey we call life, James,baby steps forward,looking to the future with open mind and open eyes,but the past holds lessons and messages, don't rush on too fast, enjoy every moment, be it drinking a beer, skating real fast, a heated discussion, sitting in class, for the journey is over real fast and in the end, would it not be great if you/ we could all say "I made a difference" great blog, good luck in your life goals, and hold fast your dreams, you will eventually figure it all out.

Wow this is one powerfully moving blog. Sometimes I think to myself that maybe I never really grew up and trust me I am 37 years old and still trying to figure out what really makes me happy most of the time. I think you should trust your gut and find something you love. Speak your mind when you can and believe what you believe. I think you are on the path to greatness and I see that your auntie would probably agree. Going to college is a hard choice but going is the right one. Just as you said baby steps one by one. I want to congratulate you on a great blog... I know it got my attention. Keep shinin' friend your light is very bright. Smiles from Lolita

school can be tough but being out of school with all that debt & no viable career is worse, pick something where you can eat & have aroof over your head. All the best! Light & Love
