Friend 3: "I have had some very interesting conversations with Jordan over wonderful meals that we prepared together"
Friend 4: "Yeah, that's what you all think until you've been in a relationship with him for 3 1/2 years, you are totally invested, and he up and decides that he doesn't 'have the energy to work on our differences anymore.' He's a total asshole"
Friend 5: "You're just bitter over the break-up. He's actually a really great guy."

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1. Backpacking in Denali, not sure which specific moment.
2. Seeing Ja'von (pseudonym), a failing student that I taught during my student teaching, get up in front of the class and deliver the most bad-ass poem I have ever heard, that gave me goosebumps, and to which his classmates gave a wild, raucous applause.
3. Every moment in the current journey that I am on: living out of my truck, working construction, and exploring California and the Bay.
