i wanted to let everyone know about my idolization of the works of Andy Rooney. Over statement. But i do rather admire his satirical methods of writing. Oh, if i could just meet him! I feel that my life would receive the shock of inspiration and drive that currently resides in the clouds of a thrunderstorm.
How does any one person decide the most useful way possible to apply their talents? Does he simply have to try every way of life before chosing his path? I need direction. This is a critical point in the life of a teenager. Senior year, the start of the rest of your life. What to be? WHO to be? I am not blessed with the abilty of seeing myself the way i am, but at least i can recognize this shortcoming. That said, how am i to know what my calling is? Mother tells me that "I'll be good at whatever I choose to be." This is not the answer i seek. This is not the answer anyone seeks! People want a message to wash up in a glass bottle on the beach, containing their best options for success in life.
The constant changing of point of view in that paragraph nearly killed me to write. I have become the grammar police. Hey, maybe i should be an editor. [yes, i know that my blog is loaded with errors, it is my place and i can refuze to capitalize or missssspelll whatever i want.]
" The closing of a door can bring blessed privacy and comfort - the opening, terror. Conversely, the closing of a door can be a sad and final thing - the opening a wonderfully joyous moment. "
-Andy Rooney
