Of all the things I have read in my life and all the stories on steemit, I think this video has inspired me to come out of the shadows and "Live" again, not just to be alive, but to LIVE ! I am not a writer and it makes it doubly hard with the tears streaming from watching this video a few minutes ago ... I AM trying.
I came to steemit to read and learn, not to write and certainly not to share my story ... Maybe soon, now that I have "This" inspiration. What has happened to me is still unbelievable to my mind and I still have trouble coping, even though I know this happens to people everyday in this Neo America we live in. Bad things do happen to good people. I can only make it through the day, everyday by remembering Robin Williams telling Matt Damon in "Good Will Hunting", "It's not your fault, It's NOT YOUR FAULT ! ...
That doesn't help with the aftermath of having to live a life of shame because of what someone has said. "Sticks and stones MY ASS !! Yes, these days a person can say something about you and can and DOES ruin your life .. I know, it happened to me. Perhaps soon I can share that story ... but for now, I just felt I HAD to share this video ...
We can't change the past, but we can change the future ... now it's My time to do that. This video may not mean much to most or even some, but it is what I NEEDED at THIS time in my life ... So if you don't understand, that's ok too, perhaps one day it will make sense to you too ... We only live once so for the sake of all that is GOOD PLEASE LIVE IT, don't hide in the shadows !!!
