We all have our own kind of crazy
Yes some of our brains are just hazy
Some drink too much booze
Jump overboard on a cruise
Life’s a movie
Just call up Scorsese!?

From the book Limerick Explosion.

in 2019, 1in8 people or 970 million people lived with a mental disorder.

An emotional regulation problem in thinking and / or behavior.the world is focused on anything but helping these people. your people. your kids. your family. yourself. we have failed. we have let it go unnoticed. undiagnosed. Where’s it come from. is it social media? is it the news? is it your genes? it’s everything. now keep in mind many people go through hell and still come out with perfect mind and spirit. I consider myself a person of strong spirit. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not easy. it’s not easy to wake up early go to work deal with ass clowns on the road or anywhere for that matter. I think everyone is one step from the edge. and some can be pulled from falling. maybe it’s just a simple thought that pulls you from darkness. or a kind gesture. there are those that are in over their head. clinically significantly disturbed in the mind.

so thats some facts but the truth is we all have a mental disorder it’s not some percentage of the population. It is the human condition. There are tons of conditions I couldn’t even cover in this little blog. It’s what you do with the hand your delt. It’s how you treat others. It’s how you love. It’s how you fight. I struggle with my emotions just like you. I joke to hide the pain. I joke to hide the self-doubt. I’ve grown, and I have my people. maybe that’s you. hello my friend, we haven’t spoken in a while. I used this blog to get through the darkest part of my life. You gotta find that thing that lets you cope with this world. I’ve always had friends, but it’s hard when your friends are gone or lost. Hard to open up to new friends. My wife is really the only person on this planet who knows me. She’s seen me at my lowest. She’s brought me to my highest. My kids are my cure. They are my living method. Now it’s true at times that kids can be a cause to some of your problems. But they are my purpose in life. They are my success. They and she are my whole world. You might be asking yourself why this blog why today. It’s not because I’m some kind of social justice warrior. It’s just to show you how fucked up the world is how we are all just trying to get to the next moment. one problem at a time and it’s to put your problems into perspective. To show you that people with more problems then you exist not to down play your problems. Take your adversity and make something out of it. As always much love from Indiana. Adapt and live. Cheers to this crazy fucking life. Thank God we get to live it.
