The following is most likely going to be incoherent when read for explicit meaning. Nevertheless, I shall proceed and continue.. I’ve reached a crossroad in my life, yet the actual crossover from one segment to the next has been blurred to the point of being utterly indistinguishable. It’s momentous when it’s deliberately considered but, because it isn’t, it’s merely listless and uneventful. However, when the mere notion is considered, one can’t help but ponder as to why that is.
Truth be told, this is the moment I’ve been anticipating for much too long. But regardless of the moment being upon me, it seems as if it hasn’t yet come. Perhaps it’s simply the fact that something this momentous cannot be contemplated nor fully considered in such a short time span, or perhaps it’s because the event itself was severely overstated in significance. I truly do hope that it’s more the former than the latter, for unmet expectations are far more devastating than anyone ever admits.
The most common feelings and emotions that are carried with the preceeding thoughts are that of reminiscence. Thus, I’ve attempted to reflect upon the events carrying me to this very moment, the events which occurred during the past four and a half years of my life. It seems as though saying a considerable amount has happened would be an understatement at best, and while trying to remember everything would be quite the task, an attempt at remembering only the pleasant would be an exercise in futility.
I think the most analogous nuance that life offers us is the frequent misinterpretation of Green Day’s “Good Riddance”. How many people have used this seemingly optimistic song in reference to times in their lives that they wish to remember, when in fact the message behind the song is anything but? Keeping this in mind, I believe the best way for me to describe the sum of thoughts and emotions within me is simply that, “Good Riddance”.
But it shall not and will not end there, not so fast my good friends. My last post was entitled “The beginning” and that it truly is. If you think what’s happened so far was impressive, just you wait. It ain’t over yet, I’m just getting started.
