The Old Leatherman

[96discoXD]

Streaker, as someone who's been in your shoes (figuratively speaking of course) all I can do is echo the sentiments of others here. Keep your head up and keep moving forward, things happen for a reason. It's like the old saying the night is always darkest right before the dawn.
Keep up your quest for the Leatherman's cave, I for one can't wait to see the rest of this adventure.
Cheers!

I was divorced last year after 9 months of marriage, it was horrible. You don't get over something like this for a long time.

Scream....Cry....Flip out... feel bad for yourself... pull yourself back up and repeat....

I think I actually went crazy at one point and started doing somersaults while screaming.

You may not understand it now, but I'm so glad that it all happened.

Doesn't matter how you feel, or what you think about your situation, it only matters that you keep on taking punches until its will grows tired. This is the break down stage before your new life, its supposed to suck and feel like a cocoon of unbearable pain.

These are championship rounds, you can't think your way through it - you have to embrace the pain and leave it all in the ring so its resolved and you can move on.

Anyway, I feel connected to your story in another way because in my sorrow I started listening to a lot of Pearl Jam, I didn't know why I liked this song so much but thanks to you, now I know the rest of the story.

I will most certainly go back in look for it again, plus the dozens of others around the state.

I am sure that things look hopeless and awful at the moment. Like everyone has said, it will get better. However no has said this. If the problem can be fixed fix it. I understand that there are a few problems that may be unfixable, but most can be. A lot of the time it only takes a few words and a willingness to meet half way. I will be praying for you. Best of luck, and keep us informed.

I never did thank everyone for the well wishes since I never intended for this thread to be about that, but thanks everyone. Granted the reason for this little day trip was to get out and think things through, but never wanted to be put on the spot for my current issues as I am tired of having issues.

I know what I want to do right now, I know where I want to go, and I know how I want to start my new life. The only thing holding me back is credit card debt, no money, and no knowledge of an available job where I want to be. If I knew I could secure a job right away, I would be able to have enough cash to get there within 2-3 weeks.

Living where I am now is only holding me back from what I need right now. I have no clue of what's going to happen and each day is just another day of uncertainty. Right now I am looking for that spark to recharge my life.

Thanks everyone, hopefully my next trip post will be only about the trip itself.

I separated and divorced for the second time,back in 2000.During that time I had been jobless and in a car accident that took nearly all my memory for a while.I made the mistake of jumping back into a relationship and not taking time for myself.I still have issues to this day because I didn't live life for a while.I too,am unemployed.Will be for five years December 7th.In that time I have become disabled with a stomach condition that I can't get help for.I am still in that relationship I mentioned earlier.It's killing me, along with my health,but she is all I have taking care of me.Next year I will make a come back,even if it kills me,so will you.
