It is a natural part of life to be tempted into indulgences. However, these indulgences do not define who we are.
When the elderly frown down upon you, little children run scared, and AA is the only place that feels normal, some serious life reflection is probably needed.

Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind - Treebros
There's an old proverb that says that when something is 'out of sight, out of mind', it means that you forget things that aren't there anymore. That's how I am. Invisible. Unseen, unheard. A face in the crowd. Alone in my own little lifeboat, floating in the sea. I try not to care, I really do. I try not to let it bother me how everyone's gaze slides off of me like water, as if I'm not even there. Except for his. tw: sexual assault, depression, mentions of school shootings, mentions of heterosexuality, coming to terms with ones sexuality, mentions of self harm, mentions of suicide, panic attacks, this is DEH you know what's going onComplete
Go Within * Connection to Your Inner Self
Are you feeling stuck, not quite yourself, more negative than positive, anxious, worried, bored, numb or apathetic to life? Do you notice that when you make changes in your life you often end up in a similar situation as before the change and again feel defeated?

Instead of focusing on changing your external experience, this book suggests to work on your internal self to create the fundamental changes that will change your external world.Complete
Shit Happens - Lessons learned so you don't have to
EVERYTHING IS A LIE, EXCEPT FOR WHAT ISN'T This is a work of fiction with a semi-autobiographical nature to it. The topics discussed here within are not at all based on our personal experiences and reflections on both ourselves and those around us. The stories told herein are anecdotal flights of fancy, tall tales to make you laugh, gasp, and wonder. This is all fabrication for the purpose of entertainment. As well, we recommend carrying around this fact-based, heavily researched dissertation on the negative effects of fraternizing and consuming alcohol and illegal substances wherever you go to ensure proper avoidance of the abject horror and utter depravity we have ourselves experienced and now share with you. God speed and God bless.Complete

My Truth
This about my life. No lies, no storytelling. The truth. If it's not something you're interested in or have the stomach to read, please don't. I haven't changed names or places. The people I write in here, myself included, will be held accountable. I'm tired of being told to sit down and shut up. Tired of people not caring or willing to help.
You are You
I am me. You are you. People have a nasty habit of labeling and judging others. It's an instinct that everyone has and we do it all the time, without realizing it sometimes. These labels do not define us. Those judgments do not blind us of our true self. We know deep down that we are different but some people hide that. Some people think the only way to fit in is to be someone else. Some people want to change for others. Some people think it's best to hide thief true self from those around them. But you are all special. You don't need to change who you are. You are perfect. But sometimes people don't see that. They need help. So I'm here to try to help. I'm here to help you see how wonderful you are. I want you to be confident. I want you to be you.Complete
Reveries and Musings
Everyone, during some point in their life, experiences emotions, situations and adversities that changes them, sometimes for the better, and sometimes, for the worse. And then there are times when we seem to leave our body mentally, to introspect about the world, its workings, and the people living in it. Everyone has that time in their lives where they wonder about how minds work, how relationships thrive, and what makes them, them. Sometimes, it's at night when you're going to bed, and life seems just a little different when there isn't any light illuminating it. Maybe it's in the shower, where tears mix with the water, and go unnoticed. Maybe it's early in the morning, just before dawn, when the idea of starting afresh doesn't seem quite so daunting. But remember. You're you because of your past. And you're no less than anybody else. Join me as I put words to my innermost feelings, as I voice my opinions. Join me as I gather the courage to write down thoughts that run through every person's mind at least once in their lives. Join me as I break conventions, as I rant and rave my way through these emotions, challenges, difficulties, opinions, that have the power to make me, or break me. In the end though, the choice will always be mine.Complete
Give me shelter
Have you ever felt so lonely you believed there was nothing left for you? Stashed away, merely forgotten. I mean you could cry and cry, yet no one would hear you. At least no one you truly once loved. Being yourself can be detrimental to others happiness, and so you down play who you are. You devalue your beliefs, your morals fall short and that hollow rock turns into your Mirror. Do you matter anymore? Would anyone care if you simply disappeared? Could you find your way out of the darkness? Look Closer is one of my favourite quotes and so I'll use it as a guide to understanding the complex characters you're about to meet.Complete
