Definition;
Recently I have been attending classes at Oregon State, Working at Alyrica Networks and living in Corvallis. This is a brief and current definition of who I am in society.
Thursday, It rained and my friends were in town. Given all the choices of activities to do after 10:00 pm we decided to explore a local forest while it continued to precipitate cats and dogs. The aftermath was one sick individual who was unable to make it to work, school, and prior social engagements.
Within the context of Thursday night I was an irresponsible, unintelligent and adventurous person. However you can’t define a person within a single moment. Just like you can’t judge a book by its cover. All have said so far is common knowledge, you know, I know and they know. However what most people don’t see because of our limited perspectives is the ability for people to change and grow through ought life. From my limited view as of 19 years I see things like college, career and marriage as stone setting moments or as some refer to as death sentences. I’ve always been unable to see past that invisible growing up barrier, well that is until recently. I thought when I graduated id be off to some great adventure but there really has been no “adventure” if you ask me high school is the great “adventure” the adventure with little or no consequences. The important thing I have taken away from this recent disappointment is that my perspective is very limited and that as I grow through life I have not lost anything I could not keep and I have only consolidated a world of experiences to take with me into the next chapter.
Tomorrow I will be a learning, understanding and experience loving individual. That, will be a permanent definition of who I am.
