Hooray!
Also, I am writing my new book, and it’s going better than ever.
I’m almost up to 20,000 words and going strong!
I didn’t know I had that much to say, but I am impressed with myself!
This one is a fun one to write, and it will be a fun one to read.
Way different than this book now, but still good.

I just love this :)

This picture is strange, yet true.

It could work with Keeping The Gleam, since this book is based upon my life, my friends lives, and my families lives…

Our experiences, trials, tribulations, accomplishments and relationships.

I’ve never written anything more honest in my life, and I wanted to share it with the world to let everyone know how it is to feel a certain way, especially when you feel like you’re the only one.

I like this picture because it makes you feel like I’m not the only one who connects with the people and the things I read… because sometimes, well actually a lot of the time, what they’re going through is real, and makes sense at the point in your life.

Almost like you picked that book up for a reason.

I hope all of you who have and will get a copy of Keeping The Gleam will feel the same as I was, or at least understand what I felt in the process, so you know what it’s like to feel scared, different, or any other emotion, when you’re not alone on the matter as much as you think you are.

Thank you for stopping by.

I don’t feel like I have a lot to say right now, but I feel like I’m bursting at the seams with too much to handle.I’m not sure what it is, I have this feeling that I am afraid could turn true, and my life will crash down around me because I have too much good going on for it to stay with me.I can’t explain the feeling, but it doesn’t feel great.I think my mind wanders way too much for me to be a social person like I want to be these days, in which I am pretty social, but I have no friends or anything to turn to when my life finds it self in troubled waters and I can hardly stand to breathe on my own.I used to be the one who left the ones who loved them, but now that I have a good thing going with my few friends and my life, I don’t feel like I have any reason to complain to anyone, when that’s all I feel like I want to do.Take a bow, this isn’t new.The show must go on and I will push through like I always do, pretending that I am fine when I don’t really feel like I am.I’ll falsify the information for everyone so they don’t worry or ask questions and I’ll put my best face forward until I am alone, like tonight.I wouldn’t expect anyone to understand, which in turn could also be some of the reaon I keep my mouth shut, but sometimes it would be nice to actually feel like I have a full life instead of half of one.I am assuming that sounds insane, because reading it back it even sounds silly to me, but it’s true.I feel like I have half of a life at the moment, and I’m not sure how to get myself out of my funk with it.I, I, I… Yes it’s annoying, even to me, but I never speak up when needed.Waiting to burst at the seams is my strong point, and I will do so when I please.It’s like a feeling I get when I close my eyes that half of what the day consisted of couldn’t be real… because what the fuck happened?It’s taken a few twists and turns and I’m not sure why, but the direction of my life hasn’t been what I thought it would be, but it goes without saying that everyone else in life I’m sure feels that way too at some point in time.I want to get away, to go somewhere, sometimes, that no one knows me and I can just pretend I am fine because no one will know the difference.Even now, no one really notices anything, so it’s suiting just to stay here, but I think I need a vacation to just show me really what life is about and even though when I feel this awful, there is some beauty somewhere.I think too much, and that causes most of my issues and problems.My brain has always worked on overload, but I can’t help that.People hate it, and that makes me hate them because it’s me… there’s nothing I can do.I don’t hate them, but it’s fine to say, I feel like, because they hate me for it so why not?I’m no heartbreaker, or geinus, or whatever else, I’m just a regular person with irregular thoughts and emotions that kill me more than a murderer would.I don’t want to test that theory, but, I feel like it’s just enough torture to forclose any situation that I don’t want or need.Please, let’s not pretend no one notices sometimes my eyes just aren’t as bright as they normally are, because it’s been mentioned before.Keep it to yourselves or tell me, I don’t care.Just don’t be surprised when I pull the rug from under your feet if you really get me to tell you my story.It’ll blow what you think of me out of the water, and that, my friends, isn’t a joke.I need to make a life out of the cards I have been dealt or I need to change and move onto something else that will, most likely, not be what I want for myself as well.I’m not great at decisions, yes I know, but give me time and I think I’ll be just fine.If not, well that’s okay too, I just want to look back knowing that I was happy, and I was happy because of me and not what anyone else wanted me to be happy for.Happiness is the key, we just have to find the lock.

I want these words to mean something to people… and for things to stop getting thrown around like it means nothing.
I Love You.
I know that they can’t hear it, see it, or read it, but writing it makes me smile and cry at the same time.
To know at least it’s out there, for someone else to know…
That’s my one regret.
I never said it enough.
