Creating yourself vs. remembering who you are


In a previous post I mentioned that I feel life isn't about finding yourself, its about creating yourself. I still believe this, I'm just ready to expand on it.

Not only is life about creating yourself, its about remembering who you are. In the process of becoming who you want to be or being who you are along the way it's easy to forget who you've always been (lol stay with me). For example, something that I just remembered about myself that somehow over the past couple years I had forgotten.. I love to entertain. Throwing parties may just be my favorite thing in the world. I love every aspect. the planning.. the anticipation of the event.. the actual event... seeing everyone have a good time.. It's a feeling that is unparalleled to anything else I have experienced.

I will never forget the day I threw my favorite party, the cinco de mayo party of 07, I was walking out front of the house to check something out and Danny Polivka was walking in. He had the absolute biggest grin I have ever seen on a guys face. He looked like a little kid at a birthday party that had just discovered the cake was made of ice cream. That smile is the reason I do the things I do. and somewhere along the way, I forgot how happy it makes me to make others happy. I am glad to say that I'm back on track, 2 years of a detour sucked but at least I didn't waste a life time.

  1. I actually still owe you for purchasing my ticket!.. not to mention, the effort you gave to getting my in-time at work delayed to the furthest possible moment, not to mention, a ride home from the park, allowing me ample time to get ready, and then a ride to work...ect.. I have shared this fabled grin that "Danny" had on his face when he discovered the cake. it was a similar moment where i walked down to the second level of the parking garage, to find you sleeping in the car waiting to give me the another ride home!. ha!. thank you for being my neighborhood friend ;-).
