Lots of reflection the past couple of days. I've decided that at the end of the day I can look in the mirror & know that I'm genuine. I am true to my word & I am what/who I say I am. That "what" might be pathetic to some (LOL), but I deserve respect like anyone else.

In my reflection I have also found gratitude for my bold, brilliant kid & crazy loveable friends. There's also a fella who puts up with me even when I'm a total flake & complete idiot. He flies big jets for a living & I don't get to see him much, but I'm grateful he's in my life.

This thread doesn't really mean squat to anyone but me, but I just felt like putting it out there. In a world that's jaded and hateful, full of con artists and lies, we have to look for what's genuine around us and be grateful.

That's all. I'll STFU now.
