I look at the photos and I often find myself asking yet again, why the rush to grow up. As fun as it may be, the pretentiousness of it all is just a teeny bit too overwhelming for me. Is it something worth working towards? Yes. Is it something worth rushing towards? No. Most definitely not. There's so much more work that needs to be done internally. So many things to fix, before I can safely progress to the next stage in life.
I have heard time and time again how you will be often be judged on the company you keep. I think I am making the right choices thus far. Everybody has his price, and I'd like to think that my self worth is significantly higher than certain individuals I see out there.
Back to that damn essay.
