CHAPTER XXII:
In this chapter, I have started all over again...I've
moved to a new place, met new people, fell in love with a new man and watched that man go off to war which is also something
completely new to my life.
Secrets....think about all the secrets you
have kept...that you haven't told anyone...think about them.
What are they? What do they involve...whom
do they involve...Why are they secrets? Why haven't you said a word about them to anyone? Are they really that bad? Tell me.
I have a year
to hurry up and wait. Fortunately, it's also a year to do everything that I have wanted to...Finally, it's time
for me to grow up. How horrible...I've been trying to avoid this moment for a long time. I've only had to grow up a little
bit in the last few years and I could handle it then so I'm pretty sure I'll be okay growing up more this year.
I have confidence in myself to make a change. It's
essential to the development and outcome of my future. One thing I've learned...not because I've been told...is that nobody
is going to just give me what I want. I've actually got to work hard for what I really want in life. I can't spend my time
waiting for someone to just come along and give me the world. Opportunity is mine...fuck you, I've got to take it while I
can. It's time to be fearless and not give a shit about anybody else but ME.
So, if you're willing and able..come with me..on my newest
adventure in this whole mess of bullshit called LIFE.
