A Flashback to Remember

Well this post is a little different then the other ones on this blog. It will make more sense if you read Two Lasting Candles. But anywho yesterday or October the 4Th i had an anniversary, you all know it anyways, it was mine and Maranda's year anniversary. But this isn't about that it's about what it brings back. It through me into flashback mode, and i can't get out of it. All i can do is sit and think about the past year. The memories are about me and her but also about everything else that has happened it the past year. I never realized it but a lot has happened.

There is so much i could write about but this is my main point. The change that happens in time. You don't notice it until you take a long look back. I've made lots of new friends in the last year, I've also lost a few. I've changed more then i thought, not in physical appearance but just as a person. I guess I've helped i few people along the way as well. The change though was immense. I've learned how to deal with people. I've seen people go from some of my best friends to someone i don't talk to anymore.

That is just some of the change though. I used to never plan ahead or to make decisions even important ones, i was a procrastinator. But that's changed. I now plan ahead sometimes when i have to and with a little urging I'll make a decision. The biggest change has been my life outside of myself though. Over the last year I've become a lot more social then i ever was. Came out of my shell if you will. I can thank Maranda for that.

These may seem petty but the biggest part about it is that I accepted the change. I hardly even noticed it but that's a good thing. People need to be able to change, and to change for the better. I know i have. For some people it's hard, i understand, trust me i know a few people who i had to work over before they started to let themselves change. But once you do it's so much better then before. I said it in Cats and Dogs, if only we were all more open to change the world would be so much better. So i leave thanking you Maranda, for and amazing year and for changing me into a better person, and i hope everyone who bothers to read this that the same can happen to you.
Just Think About It,
Tufte
