There have been so many things, ideas, places, and people that I have been CERTAIN of over the course of my life. I was CERTAIN I would grow up to be the next Britney Spears in the 3rd grade. I was CERTAIN that The Ataris had made musical history in 'So Long, Astoria', while I was in the 7th grade. I was CERTAIN that the world was ending when popularity ruled different social classes in 10th grade, and you found yourself on top one day, and on bottom the next. I was CERTAIN that the group of friends I had made in my teen years would accompany me through the rest of years. And I was CERTAIN that I had found the love of my life in high school.
But again, I want to ask - what is certainty?
Can any of us really ever be certain of anything? Life changes - quickly. Feelings move, and twist, and change so fast.
Happiness is fleeting - sadness as well. Nothing in life is certain, everything is a toss up. Heads, tails, the coin toss makes it hard to trust anything.
