((FIRST OF ALL... GO LAKERS! The NUGGETS have been dipped! WESTERN CONFERENCE CHAMPS!!!))


And So the Story Goes...


No one ever said that making adult decisions would be easy. These decisions won't always pan out the way you want them to either. With every choice you make, a reaction must follow...and today that reaction was my phone blowing up with text messages, phone calls, emails, and website notifications. I realized my network knows me too well, and I am spewing with gratitude over it.

I can't say if the outside world saw my decision coming... but people could sense the static in the air. I have made my choice and there isn't anything or anyone that can really change my stance. I accept that some people will see me as the bad guy. I realize that I will have to suffer for the choice I made. I feel that my choice is best for both parties involved. A good friend once said, "What is true faith, unless it is tested." I have wrestled with a restless heart for a while now...and now the struggle is over and the transition begins.

And so the story goes on... A new chapter seems to begin. I will be triumphant. I will keep growing. I will always look forward and make sure that my happiness stays with me. I now know the true merit of my friends and family. Thank you all for supporting me in these times of trouble.

I will always love you. I will never regret having you as one of the most significant people in my life. I don't expect you to see my point of view, but I do expect you to respect it. I will always acknowledge the fact that you have done so much for me in this life. My hope for you is that you surpass your expectations in life. I, of all people, realize the potential you have to succeed in whatever you focus on. I want you to crave being a better person for yourself...always. Always have that love for family, it's what I admired about you.I hope that we can one day reconnect and be active people in each other's lives. Until then, I bid you a heartfelt, "farewell" and "thank you."
