Becoming The Bacon!

Tuesday many things in class actually related back to a talk that me and good friend had about our lives and just our stories but of course we know all about our lives but it really came down to accepting our stories.  We got to talking and the thing we realized was that although we both mess up a lot we are on different areas on the spectrum of acceptance. Although he has not been through a lot in his life he has a harder time accepting his story and the way his life played out but on my side I have been through many hard trials that people have expected me not to be who I am but my friend actually told me that he feels like I have accepted mine because I can talk about it easier. I told him that it all comes to terms when you can look back at your past with your head held high and say 'I did these things but I came out better and stronger'. The poem of the pig was a huge thing that actually twisted the way I think of things concerning my own life and everything I have done in my past. On the path of life I am on right now, just like the pig I will hold my head up high and claim my story with dignity.
