Real Life


This shit is real man

I have reached this point in time where real life is waiting for me

It has been waiting for me at the door ready to knock my ass down

And boy did it succeed

 

It is not a pleasant, happy, or exciting experiance

It is a harsh, brual, messy reality of what is to come

This shit hit me harder than a ton of bricks

But the best part is...I get to learn from it

 

I get to learn how to act in certain situations

I get to learn the value of a dollar

I get to learn who is really there for me

I get to learn which friends really have my back

I get to learn who to call family 

I get to start to learn...what life is like

 

Real life is going to happen to everyone

The awesome thing is, is that it comes with free lessons
