I have NOT abandoned this page..

Wow... Ok...  I am back!!!

I know I haven't posted anything for quite some time, but life was hectic, frustrating, busy, _____ (insert any other known negative adjective that comes to mind)

Things seem to settle down and I will try to surprise you with a few new projects!

But first of all I want you to know..

 If you are reading this it means you’re here. It means that you’ve made it through the bullshit that life has thrown at you. It means you’re still surviving. It means that you are stronger than every bad thing that has ever tried to take you down.

It means that you are brave. And strong. Stronger than you think.

It means that you are broken. Because you can’t get through it all without being touched by challenges you’ve fought through, and are still fighting through. But broken is okay. As Leonard Cohen said, the cracks, after all, are how the light gets in.

If you are reading this it means that you have touched people. That you have helped others in so many ways. In reading this you remind me that my words are important…that my struggle is worth it. You make differences every day without even knowing it.

If you are reading this you probably feel guilty. You have screwed up. You regret. That’s okay. That’s how you grow. That’s how you learn. If you have regrets it means that you care, and that same empathy and introspection are what make you compassionate and kind.

If you are reading this I love you. Even if I haven’t met you yet. Even if we will never meet. There aren’t enough of us out there in the world…the misfits and the weirdos. Stick around. Be my friend. And I will be yours. Forever, if you are reading this

You Can Dream Again

This is for my TallGuy, who went thru Hell and Back this last year! He is one of the strongest characters I came across in a long time, but even he needs a few words of encouragement from time to time .... so this is for you, Anthony!!! 

Dream again. Believe that there are possibilities beyond the walls, beyond what you are able to see. Dream as if it already unfolded into the realms of reality.

Maybe along the way, you lost it; along the way, you forgot how to dream. Maybe the world crashed in on you so hard, you no longer were the person who day-dreamed in your room about the future – about love, about magic, about being the own version of yourself, a version who stands out in the crowd reflecting the sunshine and beaming colors that resembled twilight.

You lost that part of you, and instead became the exact opposite of a dreamer. You became a realist, a cynic for your own good – for your own protection. You then walked only the paths you were sure of, destinations you were certain to reach because they were easy and calculated.

But this is the time to dream again, it’s okay to dream again. It’s okay to dream even after experiencing betrayals, disappointments, and rejections.

Look for that light that once shone to all of your hopes and dreams. Be reminded of how beautiful it was to dream and believe in oneself. Remember how courageous it was to fight against adversaries, how dauntless it is to stand strong and hold onto what you know you’re capable of doing.

This time around, promise yourself to be that dreamer once again. This time only wiser, yet bold enough to preserve the dreamer and not let the world shut it down.

Promise yourself to always try, regardless of the many doors that will be shut in your face,; promise yourself to never let a single day end without at least one step towards those dreams.

Promise yourself to resiliently function daily in excellence and diligence. Promise yourself to remain intact and confident regardless of what other people think because you know what you can do.

You are a dreamer once again and you shall walk through life geared with the strength of the lessons from the past.

Now you are unstoppable, you’re once again fearless.

You Can Dream Again

Life-Update

I just wanted to swing by and announce that my TallGuy is back to work and on a roll! Who would have thought that it is possible to heal after a silent stroke .. a partial foot-amputation and the loss of a son to the point where you can go back to work and function like nothing ever happened! But my TallGuy is living proof that everything is possible! Yes, we still have to worry about his heart-failure and his foot is not 100% healed .. but these are things that can be monitored with the right care and medication!

All I can say is .. NEVER give up .. when life hits you hard, do NOT curl up and give up .. GET UP and get moving! 

Just one more thing ... show your LovedOne how much you love them .. hug them .. kiss them and support them .. you never know how much time you have with them!!!!
