The end of brotherhood

Your mind is a library containing all your knowledge and experiences. The library is always open to new books to be added to the collection, every person or object you come into contact with is always a new book waiting to be read. In high school my library started to fill at a fast rate each book had its own unique story to tell, each book had their own specific characters and list of emotions portrayed. It isn't always a good story in those books, there are a always some that are kind of dull or overly dramatic but essential nonetheless to your overall mindset.
There's always a way you can tell when a book is about to finish and without looking at the pages. You start to reflect on the book, you start to remind yourself of the highlights of the book. The fun and epic stories, the upsetting ones flooded with drama and anger, you even start to remember the little details of each character. You move on to the next phase, the books purpose and how it inspired you. I recall every book that opened up in my life shaped my personality and who I am today regardless if that book was a bad one. If you can understand both you can move on to the next step.

Accepting that the book is finished and its time to move on to a different section of the library, its time to visit something new and experience something out of your comfort zone, who knows whats in store for you. The best part is that you can always go back to the old books that will be shelved in the back, and always open for you to read once again.

  1. Hellaaaa good, the best part is going back to an old book but at after a long stretch time one experience you thought was epic at one time no longer is and over shadowed by another more meaningful or epic experience and you slowly start to forget the little details and eventual the whole thing over all. When may came around senior year I had a paper labeling all the important dates within the last year, that papers in the trash now. Live in the moment because in the end all these memory's will fade away and when your finally gone whos to say these things actually happened.
    (I really have no idea what im saying I just wanted to ramble about something.)
