Tah . ron . oh

I don't even know how to start this post...I guess from the begining? But first of all let me just say that yes, I know i'm not the type to see the good in things right away, it might take me a while and yes, I can be the type to point out the negatives first which is not something i'm proud of and actually something i am trying to work on. I have come to the realization that life is a beautiful journey and can be one big fat lesson but whether you learn and move on is totally UP TO YOU. When i first moved to Toronto, I HATED IT! I did NOT want to be here, i missed my best friends, my family and the home sweet home feeling, I even cried on the way, but there was no turning back. I constantly pointed out the negatives about this city as the time went by. I hate how everything is this way, that way, where the fuck is dunkin donuts, why is everyone so fuckin polite, what you mean i can't fucking swear, what you mean guys dont give head lol you name it i picked on it. Every once in a while i would run into people that LOVE this city; such as Trexx and he would spark up a conversation with me about what is new, what's happening, how i'm doing, and I would find myself telling him something along the lines of "...maaan whatever i cant wait to be OUT!" Sidenote: I don't know if you know Trexx but thats the 1 ♥ T.O. guy ...and he would straight up say to me "Neb i am the WRONG person to be talking to about how much you do NOT like Toronto, I love this city" i would simply reply "yea but it's not MY city" it took me more than one convo with Trexx or my close friends, who happen to be from Toronto to realize what he/they saw in this city to finally love and accept it. This city is beautiful and whether i'm in Toronto, Atlanta, Boston, New York, LA or wherever the hell i'm at, it's what I MAKE IT, it might not be where my best friends live or where my family is from or where i went to high school but it's MY city too. Don't ask me why I moved here, just know i'm here now. with that said... Toronto, Thank you for having me, I appreciate you :)
