I started writing this a week ago then forgot about it.

“I’m so scared of getting older, I’m only good at being young”
-John Mayer, Stop this Train

Today is my birthday, which feels a bit strange. I once heard somebody say that inside every man there is always the 16 year old kid he was. I would hazard to say that this is becoming more and more true for me. I’m now 21 and the older I get the more that 16 year old kid stays inside wondering where all these responsibilities came from, where all these fears, concerns, hopes, and dreams came from, and how the heck is he going to make it?
