This summer… I learned a lot, grew a lot, and reconnected a lot. I feel with each year that passes you must grow, but reconnect with the things you once loved. I’ve always been hungry for the experiences that life serves to me. Luckily, this past summer I was able to take it all in and live oh so well. After a long winter and spring I was able to let go of the bad and the good experiences. This summer it was time for me to start a “new”. You sometimes get lost in a image of how your life should look or what you wish it to be like someday. The best thing you can do is strip life down to the basics, learn to appreciate them, and simply live. You will learn a lot about yourself and then you can say you’re truly growing. You learn to deal with change. You learn to be patient. You learn to turn your pain into fuel. You simply work, and live life. I had a blast this summer, and my family has grown. Cheers to a dope summer! Now let’s get it Winter! Twitter/@WillSmithersLS
