So, I just got home from a summer party at the Magno residence. I had a really great time. Great food, great music, great friends... not much more you could ask for, right?
On the drive home, I was just thinking about how there are so few moments in my life anymore during which I can truly just enjoy being young and being alive. I'm not saying I never have fun, but there always seems to be something nagging at the back of my mind. Maybe it's a homework assignment that I have to get done, or perhaps it's wondering if I sent out that e-mail to the AAA Executive Board.
That's why I treasure days like today. I drove to Nicole's house, grabbed some food, and enjoyed the company of my close friends. We talked, we laughed, we played games, and not once did my mind drift elsewhere. I was totally in the moment, not worrying, not planning, not preparing, just... living.
I am truly blessed to have the friends that I have, and to be able to experience days like this every now and then. They may be few and far between, but when they do happen... well, they're just that much more special.
