TIME TO COME UP!
In my older and more invincible years I give some warning, “whenever you feel like praising someone,” I tell you, “just remember that you have advantages that they don’t.” Allow me to present myself: I am Ryan Douglas Warner. I grew up in many different places and continue growing everyday no matter where I am. I have learned that it’s not where you are but rather where you are going. In my twenty three years at bat, I have become skilled at many things and have come to the conclusion that life has lots to offer. Some find life to be beautiful and others find it a nightmare and through experiences I’ve found that it’s both. Life’s game taught me early on that it is not what happens to you, it’s how well you deal with it. At times I find myself lost as I am sure others do, but I always remain in control and ultimately understand the importance of certain situations and respectively aim to make the correct decisions. Sometimes I find myself discouraged, beaten up and washed out because I catch sight of how some treat the endowments of life, especially those who I’ve considered close. Nevertheless, as I grow larger, the streets become smaller, concepts become deeper and I realize that you can only do so much for those who do not appreciate nor respect. Though I am not perfect and would never stake such a claim, I do believe that I try my very hardest to be the best person I know how to be and on the contrary encourage others do the same.
Over the course of time, I continually try to justify poor decisions and make sense of them but often fail. I am fatigued by underprivileged ideas such as lying, cheating and taking. I can’t seem to find the rationalization of such actions. Why would I lie and expect truth or cheat and expect to gain? My only legitimate conjecture is an excuse and excuses are poor reasoning for truth. Wouldn’t you agree that if I made excuses for my poor judgment that I would continue to make those same poor decisions?
It is important for me to understand such attributes as self-worth, respect, loyalty, trust, consideration and honest wealth if I plan on succeeding and furthermore, I must understand that honest wealth is far past the dollar. The dollar will never control me. Greed manufactures weakness and I’ve become exhausted by those who continually take, take and take more. I notice that many people are only out to protect their own interests. Meanwhile, I look past mine and try to embrace others despite the cost. My loyalty stands strong and that’s what keeps me going, keeps me dreaming and trying to take nothing and turn it into something.
Perhaps my perception on things is skewed but I don’t believe so. I am completely aware that there are many other individuals that indulge life's offerings in the same manner as I do, so this is just my way of reaching out. I have been patiently waiting to earn my chance to evolve and so here I am. Prior to this advance, I voyaged constantly in search of greater meaning and now I have found it. I have learned that I posses the extraordinary ability to transform my hopes and dreams into reality. I am an honest man that has come to prove himself and my aptitude for self-invention is what gives me eminence. I just feel that I am worthy of staking everything on my dreams. Yes, I am a dreamer and no, this is not a dream, it’s a reality that I created. My cards have been dealt, my pictures in place and so now it’s time for me to come up.
Sincerely,
Ryan D. Warner
