They're okay, for the most part. They're just old and slow, y'know?

I do, and I'm sorry if you need anything I'm here for ya.

 

[D'Snowth]

Appreciate it. Remember 'em in your prayers, I know that'll help.

New Years usually mean new challenges and new things, but for me it's not. In 2017/2018 my health went downhill very fast which in turn affected just about every other aspect of my life. With work I took a three month leave of absence only to return for a few short months and then have to leave all together. As a husband and father I lost all concern and care for my family. When I did spark any interest it would be angry yelling and not understanding. As a person I slowly sunk into a deep depression and almost lost all will to live. It got so bad that one night I started banging my head against a glass window. I was done I had failed at everything I always wanted, and I thought everyone would simply be better off if I were gone. That night I finally came to my senses and laid down closed my eyes and stopped. I told myself I had two choices die a failure, or live and get my life, and myself back. That night I slowly started taking negative dark sad, and depressing things, and put more positive things in it's place.
In the past few weeks since that night I've felt better then I have in a long time. Yes I still have moments, and I still have some pain, but I'm living one day at a time. Thankfully, I'm going back to my old job very soon. Which will also help me feeling like a better husband and parent. Charlotte Fletcher has worked so hard to try to keep us afloat, and I'm so thankful for what she has done, and had to put up with. If I thought this year was hard on me I know it's been twice as hard on her. Not only did she have to work a job, but then come home and deal with 6 kids a granddaughter and me. Then there are all then other people she helps with rides and things. I'm so proud of how she has delt with all of this, and can still smile. She has done so much, and now I am ready to start slowly paying her back. Rest is coming Charlotte, and you deserve it and so much more.
Anyways I'm getting side tracked. I guess what I'm trying to say is I'm coming back, but not just coming back but hopefully better then ever.

Become a Satanist.

Dude, these resolutions are literally all the same as mine!!

YEEEEEE...great minds think alike, I guess!

Don't give me that look. Satanism is a branch of atheism that promotes exaltation of the self over some mythical "god" figure. I've been one for a few years now and I'm more mentally fit than ever.

I'm far from perfect but at least I'm better now than I was back when I believed some fictional sky daddy created the world and forces human beings to worship him or else perish in a lake of fricking fire.
