Find Yourself

I've never been good at finding things, but somehow the day i lost everything, the day i had nothing, i found what would possibly be the best thing i could ever have. myself. I lost my hunting dog, a nice strong beagle with a nose of steel. I lost a little lean-to in the woods. Its not my house, but it is my home. I would say I lost my family, I have one, but one without love. What real family does not love? Does not care? Doesn't support each other? I don't have friends. Friends are a distraction to survival. Friends do not help you live, but skill and practice do. I walk alone. I run alone. I fall alone. I dream alone. you can't depend on others to be there, because no matter what they promise, they will not always be there. eventually they will leave. But you can't lose yourself. you can only find yourself.
