    My Birthday ended 42 minutes ago (Aug 31). Maybe it's the ultimate iced blended mocha and chocolate chip choco muffin that's giving me this feeling (energetic)... but for some reason, I feel this year is going to be different.

    I made a confession about 2 months ago that I've become a coward and self-sabotage had become the norm ... like breathing. Since that day I haven't done anything to improve my life (health wise). What I should have confessed is that there are so many people in my life whom care about me, are always trying to help improve myself and I never take their advice ... because of being a coward. A complacent coward.

    It's been said that a person shouldn't do anything unless they are ready because their heart may not be 100% into it. Also, a person shouldn't do anything for anyone else because "why would you do something for other people and not for yourself?". Well, it's been obvious for years that I'm not willing to help myself.

    The things a person thinks about as a year comes to a close. Then what this same person thinks about as a new year begins. The year closes on pessimism and the new year might open with optimism. Realism, the older I get the less time I have.

    I confess that I want this next year of my life to be about self-improvement (drastic). However, I am not going to do this for myself. I going to do this for the people in my life who love me and tried to help me.

    I owe this to them.

    I confess that I let mfp friendship feel too much like real friendship when I know it's not. I was recently reminded it's not and it feels like $%#&. I of all people should know this but I forget and knowing doesn't make it any easier.

    Also I confess I'm a grown *kitten* man who shouldn't be using hash tags.

    I think it depends on the person. I do not kid when I say I consider some of the people on my friends list my closest friends. Perhaps I may not be their closest friend...but they are all I have and I will always be a friend for them because they are very important to me.

    Well said ..

    I confess that I knew it was gonna rain today and could have worn my riding clothes out of my apartment door, but instead wore my work clothes and stripped down to underwear at the metro station in the bus stop zone full of people to change into my riding clothes before my ride to work.

    (such a public exhibitionist)

    I confess that I'm thinking about getting brownies. Brownies go good with tears. Grief has a vicious grasp that never lets go.
    That it does. My condolences go to you and yours.

    I confess that even though my anti-depressants have been amazing, I still have a suicide plan. Not because I feel worthless, because I want to go out on my terms. Life isn't all peaches n' cream if you just think good thoughts and it's not my damn job to hang around. However, I'm not considering it anytime soon, and I'm very thankful to be where I am now.

    Also, morons on the internet thinking "kill yourself" is a good insult make me giggle. You've got nothing on my own thoughts.
