Success!

"...it just takes time and hard work – eventually someone will notice what you're doing."

-Francisco

At long last, somebody I know has finally succeeded! And it's about time, too. He earned it.

I realize that some of my friends are triumphant and inching closer towards prosperity; that's great for them. However, some of my friends are also on the creek-without-a-paddle route, just like me. I'm happy for the successful ones but can empathize with the not-so-successful ones more. Despite everything, I hope we all succeed in the long-run, short-run, and medium-run in reaching our goals.

Francisco, ellipsis, a law school has finally accepted you. It may not be your top pick but sometimes life throws us a detour, or two (or twelve). Who knows, this school in Sacramento may be just right for you. Come what may, you won't have to apply any further efforts towards a menial job. This is your dream coming true – go capture it.

As for myself, I feel a shared success with Francisco. When one of my good friends succeeds I feel like we all succeed. It's hive mind thinking (see Minority Report). As time progresses, more shared success is sure to follow.
