Let’s get real

    Let’s get real for a moment. We’re all a bunch of characters here, getting glimpses into each others’ lives, or at least glimpses into what we want to project as a persona of ourselves.

    Anonymity provides courage. This courage may personify itself in the form of cowardice, but courage nonetheless, if such irony makes any sense.

    Take a moment and tell me something about you. Tell me something raw. Something that you feel. Perhaps something you’re afraid of feeling that has been suppressed, that feeling in the pit of your stomach that tries to rise like acid reflux that you have to fight with every nerve to keep from spilling out and making you lose control.

    I don’t have anything quite at that level that I’m ready to share, but I’ll kick it off. The holidays are fun. It brings out the best in people... and the worst. Sometimes it can take you by surprise.

    Someone at my workplace took his life recently. Not while at work, but the day after Christmas. He texted a few people in his close circle his goodbyes. A fucking text. Maybe he thought he didn’t have anyone close to him, but he obviously had people close enough to send fucking goodbye texts to. He wouldn’t even answer the phone when they tried to call him. Shortly afterwards, his son found him at his home. Shot himself in the head.

    Within a week, a friend from high school killed himself. Not sure of the method or how he was found. He had some rough patches, but he has been doing a lot better. A lot of people rooting him on. A lot of people left behind, remembering him and celebrating his life.

    Shortly before these guys was another guy from school. More of an acquaintance, but mutual friend groups. I don’t know much about what happened.

    Funny how we go through seasons of life. Sometimes things happen that make you go faster and hit harder. Other times things happen that make you slow down and pause.

    Tell me something raw.

    Just today at work I thought if I commited suicide I'd be a dick and write a note addressed to my coworkers that I did it because nobody ever pitched in to help me. Just an Idea that came to me, I don't think I would blame my suicide on them.

    Suicide can’t be blamed on anyone other than the self. It’s in the nature of the act.

    We all have demons that we fight. Stay strong.

    If I had two or more kids, I'd say to them at some point "kids, get in the car we're going to Old Navy!"

    They wouldn't know by Old Navy I mean the place that I'm gonna rape and kill them. :)

    You can't pass on being included in the inclusion part of a person's wishes. You have no choice friendo.
