There's a big world out there. Bigger than prom, bigger than high school, and it won't matter if you were the prom queen or the quarterback of the football team or the biggest nerd. Find out who you are and try not to be afraid of it.
Growing up sucks, not all kisses are magic, not all guys live up to your expectations. But there are moments where romance, friendship, love, everything just falls in place and that makes growing up worth it.
"what is a friend? It is a person with whom you dare to be yourself. Your soul can be naked with him. He seems to ask of you to put on nothing, only to be what you are. He does not want you to be better or worse. When you are with him you feel as a prisoner feels who has been declared innocent. You do not have to be on your guard. You can say what you think, so long as it is genuinely you. He understands those contradictions in your nature that leads others to misjudge you. With him you breathe freely. You can avow your little vanities and envies and hates and vicious sparks, your meanness and absurdities and, in opening up to him, they are lost, dissolved on the white ocean of his loyalty. He understands. You can weep with him, sin with him, laugh with him, pray with him. Through it all and underneath- he sees, he knows, he loves you. A friend? What is a friend? Just one, I repeat, with whom you dare to be yourself. Friendship is a single soul dwelling in two bodies."
Another turning point;
a fork stuck in the road.
Time grabs you by the wrist;
directs you where to go.
So make the best of this testand don't ask why.
It's not a questionbut a lesson learned in time.
It's something unpredictablebut in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
So take the photographsand still frames in your mind.
Hang it on a shelfIn good health and good time.
Tattoos of memoriesand dead skin on trial.
For what it's worth, it was worth all the while.
It's something unpredictablebut in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
