Starting Over

April 10,2009
Its hard to imagine a little over 2 months ago, I was so unhappy. Today I feel like a fresh bud, on an beautiful new flower. One that is just starting to open after a period of severe hibernation. I am so happy once again.
I had a old friend tell me today that I "HAD a great smile" from a picture that was taken of me a long time ago. Back when I was happy those three long years ago back when I did smile. Since then I've been truly miserable. It was hard and exhausting. I was drowning in a sea of depression, and did not realize it. It is nice to look back on it now and know that I am so far away from that. I have found what truly matters in life, something that is very important to me, and that I deeply care about. Finally my nightmare is over, I can dream again. Hopefully more will come with time.

  • Milestone
    March 11, 2009 Today marked the day, alcohol free for one month. My last bottle of scotch still sits on the top of my fridge collecting dust. Only one drink poured from it. The last one I will ever have. I am proud of this accomplishment, and am so glad to say, I do not ever need you again. ---David B.---

  • Marathon Over!!
    April 4,2009 Now that the marathon is over I can relax. My night was full of hardly any sleep but it was a grand time anyways. Good food and great friends. Reminiscing at things from our child hoods. Oh how I miss you tv shows of the past. Where else could you go fight inside a fucking videogame, jump down a giant g

  • *State of Ignoring*
    April 3, 2009 What has happened to this world. Long gone are the good old days. Peoples values are gone. The world has gone to shit, and no one cares about anything but themselves anymore. I worked in a nursing home once running food to the people who lived their. Everyday I walked past a old gentleman in a wheelch

  • Goodbye I will never need you again!!!!
    March 31,2009 Another month has come and gone. As we welcome Spring, or just straight up summer where I live, I pause to reflect on the past while I look towards the future. For once I am fucking happy. It has been such a long time. A few months back I was on a downward spiral heading towards oblivion. I was drinkin
