I was up til' 4am today. I looked up and asked God to help me. I then looked back. I saw all that I had. Money, a heroic career, Love. I looked forward. I dreamed of all the possibilities that life still had. I did everything I could to not look down. I didn't want to look down. I thought I beat this. But, a loaded 12 gauge of steel was looking, open mouthed at me. I swear I heard it say "Welcome Back."

Futility.
I was up til' 4am today. I looked up and asked God to help me. I then looked back. I saw all that I had. Money, a heroic career, Love. I looked forward. I dreamed of all the possibilities that life still had. I did everything I could to not look down. I didn't want to look down. I thought I beat this. But, a loaded 12 gauge of steel was looking, open mouthed at me. I swear I heard it say "Welcome Back."
From the man who has everything.
