~:[CH4 - Day 308]:~ Together

~:[CH4 - Day 308]:~ Together 
It was a common theme through the day, together. As the season began drawing to a close, people began to realize that they would no longer be together on a daily basis and while they would see each other, they would not necessarily have what they had on this day. Similarly with our varsity groups, they also heard the same message, together they would try to accomplish great things. I feel that in today's society that togetherness is missed. While there are many great people in this world who have worked together and given so much, there are also a large amount of people who don't understand the concept of working for the person next to you, sacrificing for them, or giving back to them. I've been lucky enough to experience so many great people who think so much for others and I hope that this trend in the opposite direction can change. People, especially young people, need to understand that they have a responsibility to not only reach for success for themselves, but for others around. In life, you're not always going to get what you want and while you will strive for it, we should also learn that the greatest prize that comes from the process, whether you reach your goal or not, is the struggle you have with those around you. The ones who sweat with you, bled with you, cried with you and more. It's about giving up your last bite of food because someone next to you needed it more. As while reaching the greatest heights may be amazing, the experience will be much better with people who you love by your side so that you may enjoy the view with them. Only in a life where you realize that "I am because we are," we will truly feel fulfilled.
