Dairy


            
            
             Today I came across this poem called "Up" by Margaret Atwood; it was a very interesting text about mistakes in the past and making them right. It intrigued me to sit back and reflect about all the decisions I have made in my lifetime. I've been faced with so many challenges, but one of the most evident ones that kept popping up in my mind was the usage of drugs. I can still remember the first time I was leered into trying them it was uncomfortable; it was like meeting someone for the first time. Then everything got worse from there, it was all downhill. When I realized what I was doing to myself I tried to stop not only for myself but for my true friends who I had left for a different crowd. It was a very difficult process to go through especially alone, no one really could relate to what I was going through. It was only through my self-realization that I grasped the reality that it was going to be a never ending battle that I would have to deal with for the rest of my life. However through time things seem to get easier. I had totally cut myself out from the crowd I was hanging out with. I had to face my true friends who had been watching from the sidelines. It was life changing; it was almost a year of my life gone to something so foolish.
             That year helped me become the person I am today; it may have been a stupid mistake that so many individuals can be reduced to. However like every choice in life it made me stronger, it shaped my personality, made me think of things in a different way but most of all it helped shape me.
