GC, I wish I could be there with you. Chin up my friend. Your age is just a number. We can grow older in years but we never, EVER have to "Grow Up."

if this helps at all consider Monday, New Year's Day. What has happened is in the past is over and done with. There is no use dwelling on it because it will only bring you down and will hinder progress towards your goals for yourself and for your life. Start fresh and begin anew. Wipe the slate clean. There is no use crying over spilled milk. It's time to move forward.

GC I may be younger but we have some stuff in common. I've only had one girlfriend in my life and that was in my teens. I don't know if I would have expected to be where I am at 25, still living at home and finding myself. However I was not expected to live as long as I have. I've beaten the long odds that were set for me when I was born. I wake up each new day as if it was a gift wrapped up with a big red bow around it. Yes I've made mistakes. We've all done things we should not have done (or are not proud of). However it does me, nor anyone else any good laying in bed all day because of them. Get up and seize the day!

I hope and pray that your 37th year on this planet is your best one yet. I wish I could be there at the park to celebrate with you. Yours is a life worth celebrating...I mean you won that award right?
