Dear Readers,
I am only almost 20 years of age, so I have not lived a very long life. However, I have experienced a lot of tough moments in the twenty years that I have been on this Earth. I was never the popular child in any level of school; I was always the keep to themselves type of student. Don’t get me wrong, I did have friends, but I only had friends when I was in school. I did not have many friends when I was home from school. It is not like I did not want friends outside of school, I just did not put in the effort to make connections outside of the classroom.
I did have some friends that I would play Call of Duty with on the PS3 after school and on the weekend. I will not disclose their names for the sake of privacy, but I loved playing COD with them. Even though, I was terrible at the game, I just loved playing with them and talking about random topics that would come up here and there. After I went into high school, we did not play COD at all and we all went our separate ways; literally because all three of us went to separate high schools.
I did a lot since those days of playing COD with my two friends and I have also changed and grew much during the six years after we stopped playing together. The point of me saying all of this is that those two friends recently came into contact with me through Snapchat. Part of me really wants to rekindle those days of playing video games and hanging out, but another part of me wants to forget those times and move on to other endeavors. I am leaning towards siding with the part of me who wants to forget those times, mainly because I don’t want to bring back some of the feelings that were in my past around that time. I have already gotten over what happened back then and I don’t want to be reminded of what went down in the past. (Note: My two old friends have nothing to do with the bad feelings in my past, they were just around in the same time frame)
I think that I have to move on from my past and keep moving forward. The past is in the past and I have to focus on my future.
Anyway, this blog post should be the first post of many to come in the year 2017! Hope everyone has a happy New Year and may peace be with you all!
