I received this message today in response to the post I made on Xmas eve. It totally changed my outlook and mind set about the NYR.
I wanted to also say a massive thank you to anyone who has taken the time to reach out and message me. I know that social media is a very doubled edged blade and for every positive or productive element it may bring into someone’s life it can equally be negative and destructive. It can portray a false reality and manipulate your perception of yourself and the world around you. But today I am thanking it for allowing a platform where people can message me. And going back to my Xmas post and the exchange I just posted, it can allow someone who may feel lonely or uncertain a sense of worth and purpose. You could argue the value of a message from a compete stranger but you can’t the intent when it’s obviously come from a good place. Hell even the blatant thirty messages can be enough to scare the insecurities and doubts away. Anyway, what I am ranting on about as I sit in my bedroom with my almost 1 year old Trash Racoon puppy who is determined to impregnate my left foot, and the scar of an abscess in my knee that was cut open and drained yesterday which tossed any activities for tonight out the door! … is I appreciate (the majority of) messages I get (some are are seriously retarded) and though I don’t have time to respond or even read them straight away I am grateful and it does fuel my ongoing crusade of, as @alexander_reconstructed put it, “World Domination!” Which really means living a happy life to the fullest and hopefully helping others to do so too.
HAPPY NYR!
