Not Just Remembering, but Reminiscing.

I'm very grateful for my friends and family...

I forget a lot. I do this willingly. I don't know why, or how, but I think it's time for a change.

I've come in contact with a few people whom I haven't spoken with in some time now. For example, a girl from Ontario who I was friends with at a Canada-wide Christian event (Canada Youth, 2003). She found me on MSN today. We talked. No, she talked. I mean, I made it a conversation, and not a monologue, but she held the foundation. She told me stories of how she sat on my bed in my room (door open), and how I played, and it was just silence under our breath. And this other time, where her and her friend were talking about the most depressing things, and they started to cry. I stopped playing guitar to see if I could do anything, all she told me to do was continue playing. And I did. That memory was absolutely gone until she reminded me of it. And now I can see details down to the colour of my bedsheets, and the hat the boy was wearing. It is beautiful.

Also, I am going out with an old friend of mine who I was once very close with. We have both had a great deal of time since we last bonded, and a great deal of growing up too. I look forward to this date very much.

Tell me your stories worth mentioning, but lose the bullshit.

Your attitude must be alive. And strong. And human.

PS. Comment you fuckers!

FINE I'll comment. I have a ridiculous amount of random memories anyway.

HAHA- I remember one time when you and Lee stole a traffic cone from someone's front yard... moving getaway car and all. I laughed that day.

If you recall we had a History together a few times but in grade 11 there was a incident with white-out and we tried to scratch your "penis" but it just wouldn't come off....wow that could definatly be taken in the wrong context but oh well! Hanging out with you was always a blast and I think you should come back to visit sometime soon

Hey fool. Wow, i am trying to pick a memory that i haven't brought up in a while. Hmmm.... well there will always be the time that we made beautiful music together and you told me that if i said "sorry" one more time, that you would smack me. Or was it kick? Hmm....well the intention was something violent lol.

.....or how about the time at Benny's place when Arwinny blew her nose on your sock?? Lol i'll always remember that hahahaha.

I'll try to think of better ones.
