Did You Learn Anything?

Did I? Yes I did, I have learned that I lost my fire. I haven't realized it til tonight. People come into our lives for a reason. Tonight just happened to be my lucky night. A man I met tonight was talking to me, and we ended up talking about how our lives were going horribly wrong or right as the case may be. I realized that what I wanted and what I have settled for, and yes, I said it, settled, for "almost" an education, for "almost" the perfect job, for "almost" the perfect roomate, and "almost" the perfect life. I have settled for the "almosts" in my life. I told my teacher that I lived life every day and that I wanted to remember every one. Well, I was wrong, yes, I have been "living life to the fullest" but you know what, am I really living it to the fullest when I'm not doing what I want? what my heart desires? So I'm retracting that statement and saying this. Live life doing what you want, when you want without regret, without fear, and without looking back on what "might have been" and what if. So what I'm about to do, is find that fire once again, not EVER take no for an answer, and do what I have to do to finish that degree, start one in psychology, go to that metaphysical school and do everything I can to make me the best I can be, even if I'm not perfect.
