Hello, my friend,

It is odd being here, admitting to myself that I belong here. Not specifically at Wilkes, but at this point in my life. That I have things to say that others may want to hear. That others don’t even know that they need to hear.

I am, in all likelihood, beyond my halfway mark. That Midlife passed me before that b****** let me put on my shoes to catch up. But I have come to realize a few things. I am here because I am supposed to be, but more importantly, because I want to be, and every misstep and stumble was in this direction. I also know that there is no point in trying to catch up to anyone or anything. No milestones, no author’s book count. So I have hung up my running shoes and slipped on something more comfortable, and enjoyed the walk. Because if you spend your whole life running after something, or away from it, you’ll only die tired.

I hope you find this on your own path toward something you want. And though I don’t know you I’m glad you made it this far.

Christian Curet
