I don't know why, but I feel like I need to apologize to everyone for being here. I get the impression I don't really fit into this place and have made a few people feel awkward by simply sticking around and posting. If that's the case, I'm sorry..but I'm not going anywhere.
To top it off, I think I may have forever tainted a perfectly good friendship recently with someone I care a great deal about by simply opening my big fat mouth and letting the stupid out. I'm 37 years old and it seems I have yet to master the art of shutting up when appropriate.
Despite all of this, I'm not the same person I was a year ago. I've learned a lot in a very short amount of time. I've got a long history of mistakes under my belt and I've figured out ways of dealing with them that don't involve losing my mind or killing myself. Regardless of anyone else, I LIKE myself and the things I've been through and dealt with. I wouldn't have it any other way. I've finally figured out that the good I've done in this world far outweighs the bad. No one else may see it, but there's not much I can do about that.
As a great seafaring philosopher with oversized forearms once said: "I yam what I yam." and that's all I know how to be.
I'm here for anyone that needs help or simply wants to talk. I'm smarter than I look and I've been through depression, frustration, heartbreak, illness, solitude, love, hate and more...and I'm still alive. That should count for something.
I know a lot of you are hurting. So you're all getting a hug from me whether you want it or not...
<hugs>
