This is a picture taken outside of a coffee lounge where they make fantastic drinks with even tastier after-dinner treats. You see the moon in the background? That is because it is 9 o'clock at night. I am writing on the patio of this lounge of which I am enjoying this pleasant 84 degree weather. "Wait a second. Stu, I thought you were in Ohio? I didn't know this town you lived in was so unique that it had gorgeous backdrops with fascinating architecture around every corner!" You better believe what you are looking at because my phone does not have the capabilities of taking great pictures by itself.
There is one thing I can tell you about this town I have lived in for the past four months. This is one of the great cities in the country that was not built from negative people. Columbus is like a sponge where it absorbs people for college, sports (Columbus Crew, Columbus Blue Jackets, Columbus Clippers and who could forget, The Ohio State University), and that big city-small town feel. Positive acts are what keep Columbus alive and thriving. Negativity does not fair well in this city, or in any city for that matter. Keep negativity away from me as well. Because I can see myself grow right before my eyes and it is exciting for me to see what I am able to do in such a place as Columbus.
This goes for anywhere you are in the world. Take the positives out of everything around you because negativity does not lead to prosperity or happiness. I'll take the positive path without negativity, thank you very much. My lifelong dream will become a reality as a result. This town has given me an aspiring feeling to become someone my friends and family will be proud to know and love. I can feel the potential growing inside of me, and it is helping me gain my self respect. With that, I can bet there is more to come from this boy slowly becoming a man. Be patient world, just like I have been patient with you. I hope you are watching.
