Going through my closet looking for a t-shirt to wear yesterday I ended up grabbing a shirt from an ATV event from 2008 and it got me thinking about how much my life has changed since then.
In 2008 most of you reading this would not have known me. I think that is the craziest thing. In 2008 my life was completely different. On any given day you could either catch me hanging out with Jack, Rene, Matt(who was my best friend) and Lea Anna. On the weekends there would probably be a case of Bud Light strapped to the back of my four wheeler and I'd be waist deep in a mudhole. Then Matt introduced me to Twitter and it seems like my whole world is different.
I look back and, for the most part, all of the people I hang out with or talk to have been spurred by a follow. For the longest time, Twitter was a place that had no faces or real lives, other than the real faces that I knew before I followed them. It all changed one Friday night when I invited a person I knew on Twitter to dinner.
Today, you can find me, on any given day, hanging out with any one of the people I regularly talk with on Twitter. Jack and Rene have moved, Lea Anna is engaged and Matt...well, it seems as if he has moved on. The four wheeler is gone, sold because It was taking space more than entertaining me. And the Bud Light has been exchanged for a brew of my own hand.
Most of these changes, it seems to me, are for the best. One, I regret every day, but am content.
Has your life changed?
