The first girl I mentioned because for a time, she was a huge part of my life. She had become my best friend and we confided in each other. I always aspired to be a better man because of her. I always saw her going for what she wanted and she never let anything stand in her way. I never saw her give up and still to this day, she keeps going. She graduated with her Masters Degree and continues to be that inspiration for me to want to continue achieving all my own goals in life. It was one of those situations where: I'd rather her in my life than not at all, hence why we speak to each other just a few times a year and don't try to make anything more of it. Because our goals in life were so different, despite the fact that there had been chemistry, she continued on with her dreams and I knew I could not stand in her way. It has kept me going just the same. I think before these two women, I didn't really have any direction. I just did things to do them. Now I think I do them with a deeper purpose.
