Welcome Back.

Hey there Sean, so nice to see you again. You had left on a rather quick note, and I'm glad you've returned in one piece.

How does this happen? Why do I let it happen, because I know I can comfortably say that this was not the first time I "went off the deep end". I mean, I couldn't even sit with close friends and enjoy an entire roller derby match. I ran. I flew.

Highway 17. A meditative road to say the least. A 2008 Honda Element, stock, flew that road in just about fifteen minutes. It was as if I felt like I was a walking zombie, some negative forces sucking the life from me. It took a near car wreck to make me feel alive again. To interject real quick... have you ever been driving and thought what it would feel like just to run your car off of the road? To put yourself at the mercy of the forces that control your surroundings? Weird feeling to know, that at any time, one could end it all. But here we are, here I am. Doing what needs to be done. I will not ram the barrier, I will not jump the guard rail. I will not take the easy way.

Thank God for good friends who understand when you gotta go, you just gotta GO. Also for the friends I have that know how to reel me in when I've swum too far out to sea. Thank you, you mean more to me than you know.

No one can beat me, only myself. I keep letting my mind win. Its too easy to point the finger when you feel someone is the cause of your problems. Just remember that when you point the finger, there are always three pointed back at you.

Go with the flow, float the river, now that I'm back, my opponents will quiver.

984 Days. Can we turn this mess around?
