I am here for Friends

About Me

well...let me see, first & foremost I must let you all know that im an addict in recovery. I feel that is one of the most important aspects of "me" so I must put it out there, because without my recovery.... I have nothing....no life, no family. no friends......... no "me".The universe has blessed me with countless beautiful people in my life who love me like I have never known before, in spite of myself. I hope to pay all that love forward with believing all the things I am told about me & sharing those same things with people that need to hear it.I believe everything...everything happens for a reason & paths cross exactly at the time the universe believes they should....I thank the universe.... for my path....without it, I would have never met her.. my Stef, my love, my wife ♥

My Interests

learning, art, black & white photography (my new passion), working on believing in myself, connecting with the spirituality within myself so I can learn how to just "BE" on a consistent basis, poetry (yeah I dabble), randomness, making up words & meanings,learning meanings of existing words, laughing (that is at the top of the list) & people who believe that life is meant to be lived with smiles on thier faces

Heroes:

any clean addict,people who do the work to make themselves a better human,positive people despite ugly circumstances,people who smile despite ugly circumstances,people who can, despite ugly circumstances....find something beautiful within the ugliness,.....my hope for my self is to someday be all of these in one...at the same time...if just for a moment
