I am the sum of my past and present. I am your perception of me; a million different things to a million different people. I am a son, a brother, a grandson, a husband, a nephew, a cousin. I am friend, a musician, a lover. I am an acquaintance, a co-worker, an employee. I am an enemy, an ex, a sarcastic bastard. I am whatever you believe me to be.
I could be your past, present or future. I am me.
I have known some of the finest people on the planet and rewarded them with abuse.
I have hated and loved myself with a passion beyond comparison. I have suffered from addiction, depression, disability and dependence.
Today I am content and thankful toward everyone that stood by me in my lowest hours. I don’t hate anyone for stepping away, I am eternally grateful they stayed so long. They showed strength and true friendship.
I am the sum of my past and present and I am happy with the outcome of this complicated equation.
It’s never too late to know me.
My heart is open and I love you all.
