One Small Step For Man, One Giant Leap For Mankind

   Well, today was interesting.

   As you may know from my last post, I'm trying to get things back together and face my demons. Well, today proved a success!

   I confronted my biggest emotional fear today, and boy did it feel great. This person I talked to was someone I thought I would honestly never talk to ever again in my life, as much as part of me really wanted to. But today, I had the rare chance to and, after 8 months, I finally talked to this person, and there was no tension in the air, and I felt a real weight lifted from my chest. I can't lie and say I'm not a little confused or that I got to say what I really wanted to say or say how I feel/felt, but I must remember...little steps. And boy, though this was a little step, it was also a VERY BIG leap, and I'm very proud of myself today. Especially since it had the chance of going very very badly. But it didn't, so yay!

   I have improved myself a little today, and a little is still something, and I feel like I'm getting better. Onward and up to recovery!!
  Well, it's getting late here so I'm not going to do much today. It's been kind of a long day, and some sleep will do me good (it's 2:26 in the morning now haha). But what I will do is reveal the final part of THE LOST POEMS. Enjoy!:

Midnight Adventure
by Dave Karp

Looking out at the horizon late at night
the stars shining down on me like spotlights
mothing but the wind filling my ears
The wind that has been here for so many years

"What's to come next" sings a bird through a song

knowing this nighttime would not last for long

The Earth is still turning and it carries me home

to the sunlight of life as I stand here alone

Look a bit closer to the moon for awhile

Wait patiently and it will give you a smile

Just breath in and enjoy all the fresh air

and enjoy the adventure that is standing right there


And there you have it, the final LOST POEM!

Song of the Day: The Entertainer by Billy Joel

  Playing on my headphones right now, this is a great song from the "Streetlife Serenader" album. This album definitely has a west coast vibe as part of it, which is funny because Billy Joel is a big New York pride guy. But, when this album came up, he had moved to L.A. to record this album and to try to start again. He eventually became disenchanted by Los Angeles and moved back to New York. All and all, it brought inspiration to his work. Good album, ay?

  Well, Video of the Day is below, and I'll see you later : )
