Take a deep breath, step back and make some decisions based on what you want and need, not what you think others think you should wan’t or need.

While selected people and events may have the ability to significantly change you or your life, you’re the only one who can complete that process.

People hurt other people every day, its an unfortunate fact of life that everyone has to deal with.

Made some mistakes? While it pains me to say this, Beer is not the answer… neither is Xbox, movies, trips to new places, or life consuming hobbies.

At certain points in life one must make decisions for themselves, and themselves alone. Other people may get hurt in that process, its unfortunate, but everything has its cost. With time and honesty wounds heal, they may heal togther or they may heal apart, but they will heal.

I don’t know where you are at, at this point in time, but you know where to find me if you want to talk.

In my short time here I have hurt people, but I have also gained the love and respect of many many more (I didn’t buy it either, though always having chocolate in the fridge helps), by doing nothing more than standing up for what I beleive in, what I beleive is correct, and most importantly, by having the courage to revise said beleifs in line with what I know about the world, and occasionally slapping myself upside the head (with a little help from some willing participants fo course)

People make mistakes, everyone is learning all the time, and thats more than ok. No-one is perfect, could you image how boring that would be?

The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, but the needs of the many can’t be met if the few havent taken the time to help themselves first. Its kind of like trying to breathe before swimming to the top of the pool…

there’ll be lots of strange gurgling noises…

I guess what I’m trying to say is slap yourself upside the head, then swim to the top of the pool, take a deep breath and go sit in the sauna for a while, its a good palce to think about who you are and what you’re about.

In the end it only matters what you think about yourself. If you’re not comfortable with yourself you’ll never let anyone in.

and remember that people only get angry because they care… the two go hand in hand I’m afraid.

ok I’m done rambling now
Its probably not all relevant, but you get that…

**NB: The above are just sugestions and the author takes no responsibility for them, nor does he have any clue about wtf has been going on, he just felt the need to ramble on for a bit. While half in response to Adams post, its not all directed at him… hopefuly it might stimulate some discussion to show that while it blows to intentionally hurt someone, it blows even harder if the hurter deosnt learn from the experience**
