Time goes so fast
It’s crazy, just yesterday it feels like I was trekking in the New Zealand mountains with my brothers and my dad, but that was actually almost six months ago. One of the best times of my life and every day it just gets further and further away.
It feels like only a week ago I was starting high school, donning my big blazer and being bear hugged by my brother in front of my class. Sure, it was embarrassing some of it and I definitely grew up a lot from then til now, but how’d it go so quick??
I can still remember sitting there in grade 3 back in 2005 and being amazed that it was 2005, thinking how did I get here? And now it’s 2012 and I’m still amazed. So much has happened and I remember so little.
Sometimes I can’t help being a bit scared. Missing opportunities, forgetting, leaving friends behind, leaving things in the past. I don’t know, just how things change and time goes scares me sometimes. I’m not sure if it’s just me, but I get so nostalgic sometimes. When I think that soon enough I’ll be all grown up and as old as my parents are now. I don’t want to wish time away, I’m not, but sometimes I can’t help but think.

Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men. Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers. Pray for powers equal to your tasks. Then the doing of your work shall be no miracle, but you shall be the miracle.

I have three things I’d like to say today. First, while you were sleeping last night, 30,000 kids died of starvation or diseases related to malnutrition. Second, most of you don’t give a shit. What’s worse is that you’re more upset with the fact that I said shit than the fact that 30,000 kids died last night.
