Soo...this is the end of a fantastic break.  I've realized a lot since I've been at college.  People are the key to happiness.  It's strange to think that I would actually miss my home town, and then i realized that it wasn't so much the town rather the friends who lived there.  They've become my family, people who are always there, who will drop what they're doing to listen, to care.  So some people may say well hey matt welcome to the real world, people don't do that at college. and i say why not, why be so self absorbed, but it's all good, as long as i have these people in my life, i'm set.  Rich or not, successful or not, i love em, they're the people who have made my life worth living, I ow it to them.  So I think we should all give it up for small town living, insomnia, late night road trips, 24 hour diners, wal-mart, poker, coffee and cigarettes.  Take care all, it's been real. peace

Well well what to say...two comments on this thing in like 1 week amazing....I would like to direct all those present to Josh Bernaski's xanga to read up on the latest happenings including the events of 3 wise men traveling from nazareth to bethlehem, ethel markowitz, and much much more.  It would seem that the following people have made a profound impact on my life, to not offend anyone this is just a list of the guys, there are plenty other people who have made a difference but that is for another time.  The following people deserve recognition: Jesse Simpson, Josh Bernaski, Jim O'Leary, Andy Borghesani, Casey Harkcom, Garrett Smith, Brad Johnson, Chad, Tyler Beck, and Andy Berry. 

Life is good, breaks should last forever, to youth, to spontinaeity, and to life.   

What's Being Alive.  My guess....we all get caught up looking for answers, we forget that the question is more important than the answer.  We sometimes forget that maybe just living is all we need to do, but searching is important to.  For what we may not know, when we'll find it, we don't know that either.  Maybe we'll never know, or maybe we know already and are to caught up in things to realize it.  I believe in questions.  I believe in not living for a purpose, just living, the purpose will come all on it's own.  Again we try and answer questions we don't know...and we know we don't know the answer but we won't admit it.  Sometimes it's important to experience life as well, i think we all to often forget that.  We pin ourselves down with regrets and guilt, we forget to just let go and live.  So what's the purpose of me writing this well i don't know.  Being Alive?  Being Alive!  "The rapture of being alive".  What an amazing feeling it is, to live life, feel love, feel pain, feel everything.  Know it's there, know that she'll be standing there feeling the same way you do, know he'll be standing there feeling the same way you do.  What is Being Alive?  It's everything!
