It's all bittersweet, at best.  Tomorrow marks my sixteenth birthday, and right now the sixteenth autumn that I've seen (a very rainy one, at that).

At that date lies a loss of inner and outer youth, but there also lies greater freedom and even greater responsibility.  Whether these newly found obligations will worry me or set me to greater heights will be in the hands of my own decisions.  On that day, I will pledge once again to brazenly face new contracts and embrace the things that may come.  I will recognize the fact that my actions will shape my habits, and ultimately shape my character towards myself and others.  I promise to fight on and live my days as if they were the last.  After all, the future is never guaranteed.
