This month, I'm
24.
I've
received my degree. I've gotten myself married to the one I'll love forever.
I'm
still working at a dead end job and thinking about going back to school. I still
don't know what I want to do with my life but it isn't putting up with rude
people and their demands unless I like filling those demands. Right now, I have
my own demands and they are small. I want to produce some art and photography
that I can be proud of and show off.
I
want to pay off my student loans..argh! I want that big dent in the nose of
my VW Bug to be gone. I want to go slower. I want to change the world.
I
want to teach people of love and the differences between themselves without
them going at each other's throats, without ideologies causing wars, without
the pain of have and have nots, without fear.
I
am a mediator with no outlet. I am an artist with no patron. I am a man. I am
a husband. I am a son. I am you. I am your friend. I am someone you pass on
the street and may never know.
This month I'm
24 and the world is ahead
of me.
