I have finally hit rock bottom. My soul is laid bare for the world to see. Now what am I going to do about it? For starters, no more self-pity. It is a poison that corrodes the very fabric of existence. Time to put on the big boy pants and go to work. All of the pain and suffering I've endured in the recent past will be the fuel by which I will carve out a new life. Yes there will be setbacks. But I will not wilt in the face of defeat any longer!
I have but one life to live. Why waste the minutes pining for the past? The past is where it shall remain. Time to live for today! For today well lived brings the hope of a bright tomorrow. I will no longer settle for second best. The world is my oyster, and I shall pluck it from its shell! I will live life to its fullest. I will be the man that can be counted on. I will be the friend who's there when I'm needed most. The brother and the son who can love and be loved.
I will make something of myself, something that can be of service to others. Enough of selfish pride. Time to go forth into that good night. To be the man God intended me to be. Strong, self confident, assured and companionate. Today is the day I start this mission. No more tears wasted, only tears of joy. For today I am the master of my reality. I have a DESIRE to be something other than what I've been. With God's help and the support of good friends I will make this dream a reality!
