I better get busy

after reading my previous posts, ive decided to delete them for fear of sounding like a whimpering pathetic person who can't handle life. Things happen and we must keep on, and if i spend anymore time wallowing in my own self pitty, i'm going to loose my mind. So here's to life and self realization!!
cheers!
