Guest Big Poppa Popick Report post Posted August 17, 2002 So, in 15 minutes I'm 23 years old. What can I say to that? What shall I impart How about this. In the end, what it all comes down to is our relationships with other people, the sstories we tell to each other, and how we remember the past. That's what has an impact, and that is what makes a difference. Each chance you get to talk to or act with someone, you're forever changing their life-path. There's times where it's especially crucial too. I remember getting a call from a friend who decided to kill himself. Thankfully, a few of us were able to talk him out of it. Today he's happily engaged, graduated college, and has a kid coming. 3 lives, changed, by a few actions. We often don't understand how crucial our actions are to others, we downsize their impact, negate their importance. I guess, if i can say anything being 23, is that I encourage every one of you too think about everyone you know and how you interact with them, and remember that each chance you get could be the most important one in their life, or yours And now, that's all I had to say Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest evenflowDDT Report post Posted August 18, 2002 I already said it, but Happy Birthday bro! As for the thought, as someone who is admittedly insecure, it's sometimes hard to take actions, even when it does matter, and I believe I've missed out sometimes because of that. It's glad to see that there are those out there who can't resist the call to action and have changed their relationships and the lives of those they care about in those relationships for the better because of it. To many more for BPP! Cheers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
