29 + Life

I know a friend who has undergone metamorphosis in a matter of months - from a darker, hopeless, and pointless living to a life filled with meaning, joy, and enthusiasm.

I could not recognize him a year ago as on this same date he struggled to find meaning of his existence. Giving himself a gift of knowledge, he didn't how this decision would ripple through and finally earned him a place more than he'd ever imagined (or at least when he reached 29).

This guy is passionate even then but has lost his touch, because, he really lost his touch. The year went by so fast and he will attest that in that year he was the worst of himself. Still, his talents and perhaps his reputation kept him afloat, saving him from insanity and from himself.

Nevertheless, he kept a straight face all throughout, never revealing the angst and the depression which plague him night in and night out. Fast forward to the month of love, a fitting event began to transpire that will change the course of his life and who knows, maybe history. Love was and is key, as it has always been throughout generations.

Now, this friend of mine is back in his game. Perhaps not fully functional but he is not the right track. I can see him not only recuperating but morphing - becoming mature and eventually able to fly and be free. I wish him all the best for he is really an inspiration to me. Fulfill your destiny my friend!
