| Bio: |   "No one can tell what goes on in between the person you were and the person you become. No one can chart that blue and lonely section of hell. There are no maps of the change. You just...come out the other side." --Stephen King, from The Stand   True love takes the long route.  I'm a complicated person. I can't describe myself in one little box, nor could I even begin to. If you want a peek into my psyche, read my journal, but remember, just because you read my words doesn't mean you really know me. Unless of course you do know me, in real life, but even then, I bet I surprise you sometimes.   Once an addict, not always an addict. "But I think in the end, with all those holes, you kind of do something. It's like you have a container to hold your soul, and you turn it into a colander. So much of you leaks out, until there's barely anything left. And you just keep lowering your standards, to deal with the barely anything. You just leak away. And if you're lucky, then one night in the silence, in the deep heart of the dark, you'll hear the distant trickling of blood in your veins. A weary world of rivers, hauling their pain through the dark heart. The heart like a tom-tom, beating the message that time is running out. You'll lie there strangely alert. You'll actually feel the inside of your body, which is your soul, or where your soul is, and a great sadness will engulf you. And from the sadness an itch might begin, the itch of desire for change." --Luke Davies, from Candy I am a recovering meth addict with a clean date of February 19, 2001. I was a junkie for three years of my early twenties and reached rock bottom many times before realizing what a waste I was becoming. Drugs did terrible things to me - they ate away my soul, my being. I did things that I could not fathom doing today, I kept company with people that I would avoid like the plague now. I'm clean now and proud of what I have overcome, however, I do write about my experiences from time to time. I implore you to keep an open mind and refrain from judging me for the person I used to be. I've created and maintain/moderate a few communities and have a couple of topic journals. Check them out if you're interested! Alternately, I'm listed on some other friending services. Click the appropriate links to see my profiles there!      "That's the thing about letting old lovers go. You don't stop loving some of them. There are a couple you love no less than you ever did. Not to mention names...but I'm still in love with a couple. You're not going to try to make it work again, but if they needed you, you'd drop everything." --Tori Amos   My nephew, Haydon, died suddenly and tragically in February 2006. We miss him every day and with all our hearts. No child should have to endure such final moments as his. We urge all of our friends and family to love their children with every ounce of strength within them. Life is far more fleeting than we will ever truly know.  Nobody's laughing now God's grace lost and the devil is proud But I've been walking for a thousand miles If for one last time I could see you smile I, I hold hold on to you You bring me hope I'll see you soon And if I don't see you whoa I'm afraid we've lost the way Stay beautiful baby *HUGS* TOTAL!
