Dark days in the sunshine

Hitting that point in my life where I feel lost. My mind races constantly. So many things are wrong, and though I try, I can't fix them. Feeling stuck in a downward spiral, frantically looking to grab on to something. I have been pursuing a new career, one that would take me overseas again (shocking), but would also take me away from this crazy environment in Southern California. Perhaps that could be stability? I don't even know if I'll be hired.

God forbid you be honest with people that matter to you. Suppose you had to tell some of your closest friends that you can't do the things they do anymore, and that you have to take a different path. You must understand how they can feel betrayed, I get it. But in doing this, you alienate them. Alienated people are, in my experience, quite angry with those who they feel have wronged them.

I am in some dark days. I know that life is a never ending shit train. Car after car on the crazy train of life is full of shit. The train is constantly gaining and loosing cars, occasionally sending them careening into the lives of people that are tying their hardest in life, leaving those people to brush that shit off, try to pick up their pieces, and move the fuck on.

I am a motivated, dedicated and loyal man. I am taking a knee in life right now, trying to gather my breath and my strength for another push. Regardless of what people say about me, think about me, regardless of the pain that life has held for me, I will always push forward.
