normalic-ee

winter's here.
ugh.
the cold is in my bones, but not my heart,
as i sit and type,
i am starting to understand myself just a little better,
every second.

and am beginning to comprehend that
i am actually a normal person.
i'm not special,

when i think of all i've done in the 23, i mean, 44 3/4 years of my life, i am astounded at hgow much i've achieved,
how much i've learned, and passed on.
it makes me happy to know i'm not such a fuck up.
it makes me happy to be alive, and to be here,
right now,
tonight.

just 4 friends watching the ball drop on t.v..

something's changed, and also, about to change.
i get a feeling that i'm ready to move up n out.
the day is here,
the time has come,
and it's all falling into place.
finally.

1/2/12
a new day.
a new year.
a new beginning.


leaving the past in the past
and accepting the present, as a present,
is the plan.
today would be another day, and all the craziness he had been through the last 44 years would be just that, craziness that he had been through, but not craziness that he would go through.
it was time to stop the madness and move ahead, look beyond, and take whatever steps necessary to make his life better. and so, he began...
