"Please forgive me if I'm coming off too strong/Hate to stare but their winning and playing my favorite song" - Britney Spears

Hello!
I hope you all are doing great. I hate to state the obvious, but you guys all know that anything can happen right? I mean anything, Barack Obama could knock on your door right now and say that he is your long lost uncle. Someone could show up to school with bad intentions and hurt others. You could buy a lottery ticket for 1 dollar and end up winning a million. Literally anything can happen. That makes me scared and happy at the same time. I'll start with the good news. It makes me super happy because I realize that I could have an amazing future. I could get lucky and become a famous celebrity interviewer or I could find a cure for cancer or do something amazing. It gives me hope for myself and everyone else that they can achieve greatness someday somehow. I kind of found this hope again when I was reading First Steps 2 Forever: My Story by Justin Bieber. It was a really good books and I would suggest you all read it because its great but i'll tell you a little about it.

Justin Bieber was a regular small town boy dreaming of a drivers license. He was into music from the very beginning and did it for fun. He was embarrassed to share his interests with friends so music was just something he did on the side when he wasn't going to a school where they spoke all french (I had to add that tidbit in, he speaks fluent french). So he enters a singing competition, puts it on youtube and the rest is history. A regular guy became a super star in the shortest period of time. He didn't know anyone in the business, and he wasn't filthy rich he was just lucky. This story is proof that there's plenty of luck out there for good, deserving people. You just have to do your part by working hard and figuring out what exactly you were called to do in life.

The downside of anything being able to happen is that bad things can happen just as easily as good things can. So value what you have while you have it. There are people who've been millionaires and ended up in a box asking for money with a "homeless veteran" sign. As fun as it is to hope and long for something better for yourself you should appreciate what you have, because I guarantee that there's someone wishing they could have your life.

I guess the whole point of this blog is prepare to be surprised. You never know what's going to happen.
