Pete's Log: I really like your peaches, want to shake your tree
Entry #1183, (Life in General)(posted when I was 23 years old.)
Tonight. Tonight. I can't begin to describe the magnificence of this night.
Ok, nothing I write could possibly live up to that introduction. So if you're disappointed by this log entry, screw you. I had fun.
Tonight was a good night for the simple fact that I went to Mishawaka Brewing Company twice. First I went there for dinner with Branden. I think we spent well over two hours there. We had a good talk over some good beer. I then returned to fitz and found that Brian was back in town. So what else? He and I headed over there and hung out. More good beer, more good talk. I love my life.
I should elaborate. I've long given up on summary log entries. I've already written down everything I intend to, so no need to summarize. Anyone too lazy to read the whole semester worth of log entries doesn't deserve a summary. However, I'd like to state the following: I'm happy. In fact, I'm very happy.
To pick a somewhat haphazard period of time, I'll chose the time between last May and now. I feel that between then and now I've grown a lot as a person. At this point in my life I can say I am genuinely happy with who I am. I like me. That's not to say I'm happy with every single aspect of my life. I just feel that the person I am is a person I can truly respect. There are still improvements to be made, and I continue to strive to become a better person. But I've found a solid foundation from which to base my struggles. Low self esteem is a thing of the past.
Above all else, it is the journey that matters. Life is short. I will make of it as much as I can. I will not stress over things I cannot change. I will appreciate the good and accept the bad. I will love my friends.
Peace out. My most sincere thanks go out to all who have helped me grow. I'm pretty sure anyone currently reading this falls into that category. If in doubt, assume you matter to me. I love you all.
