It would be so easy for me to give into hate. So easy to sink to a lower level, but why? Who will it help? Who really gets hurt? Buddha said that being angry with someone was like drinking poison, and expecting the other person to die. With everything going on around me it’s easy to lose it. I thought really hard about my next move. What should I really do? I’ve spent so much time picking myself up. Too much time. Now I’m dusting it off, and letting it go. Moving forward. New love, new life. These past few days I’ve given so much thought to the man I am. The man I want to be. For my boys, and for Carrie. I’ve dedicated my life to the service of others. To let love and compassion always be the things that guide me. Watch my karma, watch my path, and cultivate mindfulness. I’ve tried to become a good man. Honestly. It’s harder some days than it is other days.
But all I have is today.
It’s time to pick the world up…
