Time

In one second, a race can be won or lost,a life saved or taken,a friendship made or broken. Being who i am,a runner makes me appreciate time a little more than most. Over my time in high school much in my life has changed,ive changed my views on various things ive shifted from a mediocre runner content with just fighting to the finish to being a runner that competes seriously and about 5 minutes faster than i did freshman year.
in other things i have gone from someone packed tight in a little shell to someone who is a wee bit more outgoing and doesnt mind being in large groups
cross country has helped alot with that,the funniest thing is is that most of the changes in my life have been in the last year, year and a half im really glad that i have too,its been good to go from the guy that lived on a routine always going-seminary,school,run,home,read,sleep repeat. probly with read thrown in alot more than that and then theres now, at the moment im living on routine but thats jsut because of my lack of school going on but for the most part now i live planning as i go that is to say not planning at all =)
i feel old
thats alot of what goes through my mind now
i graduate in the spring
college or a job in the coming fall
mission in 2013
i feel old
i feel like so much hasnt happend in my teenage years yet at the same time so much
ive lived the last 4 years of my life with the motto of- "To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift" for the most part ive tried to stay strong to that and ive very much so learned what that statement truely means
heres to yet another amazing year and a hope that this one beats even my last one
