 Look at what you made me do #Windows . You talk about taking screen shots and putting ads in the taskbar! You made me buy a #Mac . I am tired of being in this abusive relationship with you #Microsoft now because of you I joined the #Apple cult!

Btw I now run #Linux on my desktop! Screw you Windows! 
 I could really use a hug right about now. 
 This darkness, it grasps at what's left of my inner peace. It weights me down to the bottom of the ocean like an anker. Depression you still have me but I'm learning more about how to fight you each day. I will use my mind to help heal my mind and overcome the evil illusions you haunt me with.

 Whether it be by personality or by my bipolar diagnosis, I am and always have been a passionate and sensitive man. Trying to figure out where I begin, and the mental illness starts continues to be an ongoing struggle.

 Jake Paul you are an idiot for fighting a close to 60 year old man. Mike Tyson is a valued part of my childhood and if you hurt that man the level of hate I will have for you will boil. 
 How many dead bodies have you seen and why?

Over 100. You see part of my old job as a Patient Advocate was to console those who lost loved ones.

Be there for last rights, For guidance on what to do next, for goodbyes.

At first it spooked me, then I started to understand how privileged of a position it was.

It was truly an honor. 
 War is never the answer.
Killing is never the answer. 
Hate is never the answer.

 Trying your best looks different each day. 
 If you’re in a domestic violence situation and you have an emergency/burner phone that your par...

Nice reminder that some hero's/heroine's don't wear capes.

The world is a better place with you in it. Remember that. 
 I do my best to control my emotions but dealing with mental illness is akin to holding back a Dam. 

The water continues to rise and no matter how strong you think you have built the wall... sooner or latter the water will win and the emotions will flow as water over that dam.

If you've ever been swept away in a rip tide or strong current its not unlike dealing with bipolar. That helpless, total fear.

 If you can't handle me at my worst then you don't deserve me at my best. 
 Took like 2 minutes  
 @Alice 

Well done. Good troll :) 
 @Alice 

Okay this is a bit creepy. 
 @Alice 

How long did this take? Also.. when I say creepy I mean the overall pic. Not the face... 
 A power outage is not the time to find out all the candles you have are scented. It smells like I walked into the perfume section at Macy's. 

Hello darkness my old friend. 
 I have the next three days off and will only get out of these pajamas to put on cleaner pajamas.

 Don't let others tear your dreams down. One of the biggest travesties is a person who has not lived up to their potential.
Live your dream and shine your light. Let no one stand in the way of your destiny. 
 The best way to expand your mind is having the ability to stay humble even when you think you know the right answer.

You will find in life that just when you think you understand, you really don't. 

An open mind and heart also leads to empathy, a vital ability sorely lacking in today's society. 
 It's painful to be a New York Giants fan. 
 The rising sea level does not give a shit about your pollical affiliation or if you believed in climate change or not.

We are basically fucked and we have people arguing over what bathroom to use. Or how we address each other. Just be kind to each other is that so fucking hard? Empathy isn't fucking rocket science. 

It feels like the house is burning down and people are fighting over the marshmallows to roast over the fire. 
 Damn lonely night. 
 Cancer is out of my neck and this talkative guy from Brooklyn still has his voice. Sorry people you can't shut this New Yorker up that easy.
