Wowie, it's been a long time since I've written a post. 6 months and one week to be (almost) exact... Geez. My apologies. I will do my best to post more often. This is a slightly inebriated post, btw. I feel like I need to update y'all on where I'm at. No better time like the present, in my opinion.
What's happened in the last 6 months? I've moved to an apartment on my own, I have my own car that I'm buying and I'm just trying to make my way in the world. It's tough some days, especially living on my own. I sometime slip into some dark places, but I'm pretty proud that I keep pulling myself back out of them. They're fewer and further between, if that makes any dang sense... As much as I sometimes despise living by myself, I feel like it's necessary for me to do this at this point in my life. If I can do this I can just about do anything, and that's the ultimate test. So far so good, I'm happy to say!
I do want to say that I owe all of this advancement/growth to my family and friends. About a year ago I was ready to end it all, and thanks to a select group of friends and family I'm still here today. There was an issue with work and some co-workers took it upon themselves to help me out of this predicament. They called my mom, who then called me and talked me down from where I was. When I say that I was close to ending I mean that I was hours away from going and buying a gun and ending it all. Is that too much, possibly. But I now know that's not ever going to happen, thanks to family and friends. Family extends to the co-workers who I did not even know 3 years ago. I can never express my gratitude to them, but I sure try every day. If you happen to be a co-worker who is reading this then you know who you are, and I can never ever say thank you enough.
That being said, I also have to say (write) a massive thanks to my close friends and family as well who I've known for a little longer than 3 years. If you are reading this, you know who you are. I wouldn't be where I am without you guys and girls. It's amazing how a dude like me can have such a support system, but I'm here today because of it. I can't say thanks enough, and I'll continue to do everything I can to keep myself moving forward, since you guys have worked so hard to keep me going. I'm forever grateful, and I can never ever ever say thank you enough. From the bottom of my heart, and with all my soul, you guys are the reason I'm still here, and that's the honest truth...
Til next time,
Hunter
