A Reflection

It's within my to apologogize...maybe it's a characteristic that I do, and at the same time some may have gotten to know others by way of chatting. I have been doing tremendous the last while with. I think that most of you know that I was. I never thought I would write or need to "back up" something I have said within my family.

I literally use this as an excusion and I enjoy it as well as what others write. I have - I really have. But at the same time, I think that most of all is one that focuses on oneself. Let me just for a moment tell you a story - a true one in which a friend of mine whom was a former SWAT Team Negotiator and by the name of Heather. Heather did a great job and at the time when I went to see them both Heather's first mention was that she sees people like this each and every day and what do my folks wish? There was a story up here in Canada of a girl that spent nearly half her life moving and moving as there was a similiar situation to my own. When I talked to Heather and my old friend Gary of all that had gone on they were in all that I could deal with it all. I really don't know where to go with this one but all I can say is that after tomorrow I shall gain back my momentum and within the next two months I do have to start making some plans. Those that are famliar with this illness and any professional knows the traits and all that can come with the illness.

(I know I am trying to move this on as I wish too).

Let just say this - I have come a long ways since I was hospitalized and they said I wouldnt be able to do things. I have a team of doctors, one of which is a neuro pychiatry and truly is great and yesterdays date he mentioned that he would love to see me on with it in two months and I could not agree with him more. I am not running away from anything however I aside of the weather I do have to make some changes within my life and those around me. And That is really the best way I can say it.

With those that came forward and you could see within their write that they had witnessed and knew of this sickness - I really applaud you as it's taken up a good part the last ten years. But I don't think nor dwell on it - but now and then it will show and rise and there is not one thing you can do except meet with the professionals. So I had like I had before and now what is best for me - take it easy - distance myself - look at the positive options and not make fast ones. And follow my doctors orders. I guess the reflection here is that I am not a perfect person but I have done the decent things. What I have done and what I WILL do is something that still within this age I can look back at and smile with what I have accomplished as I am and I shall.  I don't have Schizphrenia I do have a mild case of ADD and as of yesterday there was some thoughts as to if 60% of all of this is situational.

Certainly on here sometimes I can be a bit....well I can sometimes take a nab at someone as I know what there aim is or the intention but are there times that I am reading something that literally I am laughing more than on would know - yes.

Yet when all of this happened so unexpectedly as I had talked with my sisters pychiatrist, I know I had done this back before and now I am not much for doing all of this for family. Call me selfish call me what you want - but within the last two weeks without a mention I was working on all cylinders in many ways so within blogging I do wish to get off the subject (most might be asking - why is he writing again then?)

The reason is that I do enjoy your writes even when there are differences. But most of all I was falling into the same situation that caused me to nearly have a mini stroke in the beginning of November so everything does have a meaning.

So if you wish to read this and I can assure you that things are fine and actually on here I would love to have a little fun as we have some harsh weather and I am not going to take my legs backwards when I have just embarked within a gym...So I am not down and out but I was very embarrassed.

Sincerely with the best of Regards,

 

Jack

  2. Thanks Cinn as this was something very embarrassing to come on here and it took till today to come to terms with that....
    I hope the write does make sense and I still maintain that determination and as well I have done my own worth of thinking...
    Shall see you on your blog and I hope you know I am kidding when I do place things. This no more is a revolving situation for myself
    and two months will illustrate that. And you are an inspiration...words but I think by now most all know what I am saying within
    words....

    Thank you Cinn...

  3. You have nothing to be embarrassed about. Jack we all have family and you do not pick the people you are related to. If people met my family they would wonder if I was adopted. I am the black sheep. the gym is a great place to go. After a very bad relationship break up I went through a really bad depression and a friend of mine got me to start walking. He reminded me of a saying on the wall when I was in physical rehab - The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Today you take that step. The year I started walking I kept a log of where I walked and how far I walked that day. I walked 602 miles thats 968.8 kilometers. I felt like I had walked away from it and put it in my past. The gym will help

  4. It does and it shall so let this be a new start as I do have one meeting tomorrow but I shall write within the things that I wish to Sharon as you mention it came to a point where I was discouraged with where thoughts were heading and all good things come with time. The Gym is on segment and I do know what my goals are and I am ready to enjoy this so it's a step back and yet forging ahead.

    I have been in the midst of writing something else which is not on a blog but I placed that on the back burner as well over these past few days. One can pick friends but not family and I am sure that everyone can relate with this within there own manner.

  5. Reading this at first I thought I had been missing something all along reading your blogs. But I don't think so after I read on. I bet everyone in the world has family they would rather not have, as do I. But more so, I have fat I'd rather not have. Been trying to get rid of it all my life and in Feb 2008 kicked into exercising and walking and the fat is still here. It's depressing cuz I'd like to be like everyone else. Luckily I have some fabulous friends who love me for who I am, not what I look like. I have one brother who lives 20 miles away. I have talked to him once last year, we did not get together for holidays as his kids and his wife's family are taking all of his time. I don't feel like am missing a lot though he is my only sibling, our parents have both passed on. I met a man on the internet who I consider my brother more than my real brother. An I have met 2 "sisters" on the internet. I have met all of them and they have met each other and we are a family. So I'm rambling here. I have this feeling that you are normal buddy. Everyone has things going on in their lives that they feel is strange, when really it all is not. I accept people for who they are when I meet them because who they are now is what is important to me. I know they all have problems and when we talk about our problems we realize we are all basically the same.

  6. Family is family and there is not much we can do to change that ~smile~ .... fortunately we have the choice with our friends and sometimes they turn out to be closer than family .... somehow friends are more forgiving and giving than ones own family. Hang in there Jack .... you are not alone!!

  7. But your you and that is all that is important and I hear you with clarity Nancy I do. Everyone does but each within different manners and ways. I lived afar and I found that I was more my own self. So there are some things in which I must do - I don't have a choice ie - not a millionaire and within these last two months it's been great but I really am a care free person yet within that I do need to get things moving as I was and I know where my folks are going to be as well I know what happened and I have no qualms with myself and I enjoyed reading this - no ramble at all. For me the net was coming to be lessor as I was within that grove and then when this came down.

    It's a great story and not saying it one thing I do know is I have to get my eyes checked as seemingly it's hard to read. Thanks...

  10. well Jack I am sorry that you were embarrassed, but please feel rest assured that there is nothing to be embarrassed about, ok? we are all only human, no matter what and friends are friends no matter if we do something that we feel embarrassed about or what have you, or something was done to embarrass us even. I hope things start going better for you and it sounds like you are on the right path! {{hugs}} now smile please! :)

  12. You have such a gentle heart and say things with such care. Please know that your blogs are in a safe place. We all have to try our best to keep it free from negative users but all in all we come here to put things down on our pages that others can respond or react to discreetly. That being said, I hope all is well with you♥

  16. Exercise is one way to unwind from almost anything life throws at you. Another is to write. I wish you all possible success in maintaining both these habits, Jack :-)

    As has been said, you are not alone...

  18. Certainly Doug, I am not well away from all of this blunder although it does exist and as for myself, I am not within a rush for anything so I am just going to take the time to enjoy and finally the weather has broke. What Sig said was very true and yesterday I never did come on as I just wished to opt to do other things and so I know I am not alone.
    So I still don't know what got this all going but I know I need to get on with it. I never thought that there would be others that came out but I have to get on with it and be steady with the goals that I had set for myself. When the ball is thrown - I duck :).

  19. Ah, Jack, my friend, you are much too hard on yourself. Hugs. I wish you could see yourself as others who love you do. I guess we all struggle with that one, eh?
