just the beginning

and i don't even know where to start. i am following my friend over to this site in an attempt to expel words from my head and fingers and place them somewhere else for safekeeping. i spent years on other websites, but for some reason this one seems a bit more anonymous, and perhaps that is good. good for the simple fact that i feel i am truly starting on the next segment of my life. good that i can look back and see the difference between then and now, and that there is more similarity in the now and soon too come then there is in the then as compared to the now. yeah. whatever. you know what i mean, maybe. it's a new concept. i usually don't know the segments of my life until i look back years later. but this one...this one i can see all around me and i can feel and it has everything to do with why i get up in the morning, the bigger picture, feeling like there is some purpose in at least some part of my life.

as someone once said: the speed at which we travel makes regret difficult...

if you think about it, it can mean so many different things. but i will take it to mean simply that my life finally has a trajectory. in color. leaving trails behind me. i want to gain speed, and stop loitering in the past. i am completely flawed and hopeful. i am interested in seeing where this goes.
