Hi, guys. You're probably wondering why i haven't posted in a while. Well, here's why:
A few people in my community passed away recently, all from different causes- a teacher who was important to me, the father of a girl in my school, a nine-year-old boy...
Anyway, besides saddening me to no end, these tragedies got me thinking about how short life really is. Then i started thinking about all the time i've wasted in my life.
You know, at my funeral, i want people to have things to say about me. I want to fulfill my potential. I want to live my life to the fullest that it could possibly be lived.
I realized that i have a real talent for easting time. During the moments when i could be building worlds, i'm instead playing video games, watching TV, or - yes - blogging.
I don't want to waste my life anymore. a moment is far too precious to waste. i'm spending way too much time blog surfing.
At this point in my life, i think this blog is doing me more harm than good. so i'm going to say good-bye now. and thank you. you guys seriously listen to me more than anyone in my "real world". and that means a lot to me, that people listen, and care enough to comment on things that i've written.
honestly, i don't think this blog is helping me, besides for helping me push off the things i really want to do. i have goals and dreams, and i can't accomplish them by staring at a computer screen.
so goodbye, for now. maybe someday, i'll feel that i need this blog again. but not now.
remember, a minute of life it too precious to waste. so LIVE, and have no regrets.

lol, you are always right on your correct.
...*sad* bye, GR. I'll miss you.
i know i haven't been on in a forever (this is kat (from way back when!)i changed the name) but i hope i'm not too late to say goodbye :/
i hope you find your furfill all your goals.
i wish you only the best.
well damn...i just got here and the party's over...
oh well...I guess blogging for me is different than blogging for you...even though we both claim some relation to philosophy.
Anyways..aren't cursing and swearing pretty much the same thing?
i wouldn't have said 'damn' but I didn't read your disclaimer until after I put it...haha...at least I didn't insult you.
You probably won't read this anyways...oh well
I think I'm gonna cry. I'm really sad now.
But you're an amazing person, GR. I'm sure you'll do great things for the world. Great things.
^_^
(This is so immature, but my code is "fecies." Haha.)
Have fun and be great!
I suppose everyone feels like they're wasting their life down the drain on way or another. But then if you have no...direction outside of blogging then you really have no other way to live and go and be free.
Not that this applies to you (just abstract wanderings of my brain).
I'l miss you, ol' pal.
Have fun. =D
aw! I'm going to miss you! I hope you can come back to us soon!! I turn to the blog often because I can get depressed (remember how I was LAST year?). But I'm sure you feel you need to do this and that's your choice. Good luck!!
byez...sadnizz
but happinezz for you too
loved your blog, wish you the best ^^
I'll miss ya, GR! You were an awesome friend. I've been thinking about the same things... my dad has been mad because I'm on so much, but there's nothing else to do, and my parents never act like they want to do anything. It confuses me and everyone ends up mad. I understand this is a personal problem... hehe... and yeah, I'll work to fix it. I'l miss ya. Good luck in the "real world". =] You're gonna go far, GR.
i will definitely miss you griffinrider. hopefully you will check back once in a while but i understand if you don't. i'm sorry for your losses and i hope you get things the way you want them. good luck with everything and i would love to talk to you sometime if you come back. bye griffinrider!!!
-Christine <3 *well at least that's what we're going with, lol*
...surprisingly enough, I've been definitely feeling the same way lately. go out and build some good stuff, my friend!! perhaps I'll join you on your quest, though in a very different place...unless you live in Sylvan Lake Alberta as well...which i kinda doubt. XD
Peace and Love my friend!
You will be missed. But as long as it's for a good cause. Have fun.
:'( bye bye
Good job. I did the same thing recently, kind of makes you sad, huh? But I understand. Have fun! Don't forget, you can change the world. Everyone can. Each individual... wow...
Wow, that kinda sucks.
But good luck with your life (:
I hope you do well in everything you do.

I wish you could stay just a little bit longer.
You've brought a lot of truth into my life Griffinrider, I really owe you somthin'. At least it lasted while it lasted.
Thanks Griffin Rider, I'm sure you'll do great--extravagant things in your lifespan, no matter how long or how short it may be.

Goodbye, have a good life. And, even though I didn't really have a chance to read your blog, I'm sure it would have been a darn good one. So long, farewell..... :P
wow I just found this blog and was blown away bu it and now you're leaving? *sad* But I wish you luck in whatever you do.
i haven't been on in a while, GR but i will get on to say: i'm proud of you living your life the way you feel you need to. it's important to do things like that that effect your life in good ways. come one once in a while to say "hi" cuz i can't live without your advice and wonderings, but don't go on too much if it's not what you want.
wish you the best

We'll miss you GR but just know that we'll always be here for you.
Wow, what feels like an eternity has only been about two months. I know you probably won't read this, Griffin, but on the off chance you do:
I hope everything is going good for you. I'm sure you're living your life. ^_^
I really do miss reading your words of wisdom, though. Your posts were exceptionally deep and thought-provoking. I haven't been able to find anything quite like them since. =/
