One year…

Time seems to pass by so slowly when you’re suffering…
Yet it does so fast when we’re enjoying life!

This last year has been a year of much introspection, of getting to know myself better, and to see things differently. It’s been a year of becoming stronger after healing wounds that have been inflicted by others, and by me.

After careful evaluation of the events that have transpired I can surely say I have been a traveler, a journeyman who has traversed from the deep valleys of love, to the uncertain waters of betrayal. I’ve crossed the jungles of despair, the deserts of solitude and have lost myself in the dense woods of uncertainty. I have survived a relationship conceived in hell, almost sunk myself in the swamps of emotional blunting.
In the end, and thanks to you my friends, I have been rescued and brought to walk again along the plains of eternal and unconditional friendship.

Thank you all for being there for me,

Thank you all for responding to my summons. And thanks for making my life one worthy of writing a book, one in which each one of you would deserve a chapter.

You have helped me throughout my life, and you have helped me be who I am today.

I am The Wolf,
the Puppet Master,
the Game Freak,
but, most importantly, I am...
…Your Friend




Lesson learned: "If all my friends were to jump off a bridge, I wouldn't jump with them, I'd be at the bottom to catch them"

What a difference a year can make. The wolf cries, and Life responds. While I'm happy to be one in your "pack," I'm also grateful that you're in mine.

So now that you're appreciating a mind-blowing year, what would you like for the next one? The Universe is ready to take your order.

I will be successful in all my endeavors. I trust God, the Universe, and all it will be so, and all will be well.
I will be so blessed that those around me will feel it too.
