goodbye to 22


dear year 22... it's time to say goodbye... and what can i say, we had some great times together... LOTS of laughs.. quite a few tears... more ups than downs, to be sure.. i think we grew a lot in our 365 days together.. we tried to let everyday change us.. for the good. we didn't know when we started out together that we had so much to learn... but now that you're leaving... you know as well as i do.. that year 23 and i have quite a bit of wisdom to chase... but rest assured.. if there's one thing you taught me, it's that there is just as much to learn from trying and failing as there is to learn from trying and succeeding... and that's a comforting lesson.. i promise to always try, if it's all i ever do... so heres to you and all you gave me... and heres to 23..

Remember the song "i'm 22 today"
and also the quote about all the things you've done now that you're 22...all done on your 22nd birthday?
quite humorous.
happy birthday my dear friend! i sure do love you a lot!
