Turning 25 was intriguing in many ways and also something that I looked forward to. Knowing that in life constant ups and downs are sure and are apart of the overall development process, I embrace getting older, maturing and continuing my learning experience. Though I am still young, before I know it I know I'll be 30...I can't believe I am already 25! After you turn 21, the rest is history...that's what people used to tell me and that is what I catch myself telling people now. Isn't that funny how we start to recite stuff our parents said as we were kids the older we get?? With that being said, I know that time is of the essence and I need to began to work towards the goals I set 5 and 10 years ago. And that includes family...One thing I have learned and come to cherish up until this point is family. Unfortunately in today's world it is much easier not to show love, appreciation or respect; we all see it all around us and on T.V. We only get one family-however that is put together-so you have to give all the love you can while you have the chance. My uncle suffered a massive heart attack last week and Teena Marie died yesterday, on my Birthday. So all this has had me reflecting on my life and my family and friends. As another year unfolds and I continue my journey, I will make the effort to love unconditionally and treat others as I would want to be treated, it's that simple...Happy New Years!
