Chad, Ty, and I didn't talk about anything groundbreaking. We simply talked about where we've been, where we're at, and where we're headed.
Chad talked a lot about Indiana. From his expectations to his worries and everything in between. Ty and I told him the little bit that we think we've learned so far in college and told him to enjoy himself. We also told him to be on the look out because Indiana is a state school with some gorgeous girls.
For Ty and I we're headed back to where we were last semester. Both very content with our situations and ready for what the next year holds for us.
Talking about where we've been was easy for three kids who went to high school together. We reminisced on classes together, on people that have changed, and on people that will probably never change. We had some laughs about it and realized that we've done pretty well for ourselves.
I guess the most important type of talk is when you talk about where you're at. Looking back on our conversation I'd say that talking about the present is the least talked about subject. It makes sense that it would be that way because it's just easier to talk about what might be and what has already been.
Talking about what is isn't an easy task. It's hard to assess where we are when we are in that moment. It's hard to talk about what's keeping us going, what's making us laugh, and what's dragging us down. I guess that the present is something that's ever-changing and hard to grasp.
It's important to talk about where you've been because that's what made you who you are today. It's important to talk about where you're going because that's what you'll be remembered for. And it's important to talk about where you are to keep you sane and grounded. Talking about the future and past is only as good as your state in the present.
Our present is a byproduct of our past that will create our future, so we have to talk about it.
