It's a new year and i feel like a new girl.. or women.
But i feel scared... scared of things to come...
One thing that ive always feared is the unknown.
The only obvious explaination would be of that I am young.
Yes i'm young.
My book is still being written i guess..
Were probably still in the first chapter but i am making progress..
grow from what you are scared from.
The reason i bring this up..
Mr. D
I know what your thinking?
Who or what is Mr. D?
Well we could just call him a friend.
Someone that isn't afraid of the unknown but embraces it.
Mr. D is a teacher and as far as i know he's one that i could learn from.
He was diagnoised with Lung Cancer in 2004.
He didn't tell most people... not his students, not his colleges.. only close friends and i assume family knew.
He got sick one day and was unable to attend school.
He was in the Hospital for 4 months before he passed.
Even tho he was physically gone, doesn't mean he was gone from our hearts.
Mr. D instilled something in me that was missing.
COURAGE.
To go after what you want, and have nothing stand in the way.
To be who you want to be.
To not let being scared get in the way of anything.
To live your life as if you were gone the next day.
Be thankful for what you have, for who you have.. everyday.........
No matter what....
"How much time do we have?"... "Enough"
