Day 6

You live and you learn. I've done some really stupid things over the past few weeks. I've taken the people who love me for granted. I've learned that things from your past can come back to hurt you even after you've made up your mind to do the right thing. It took me possibly losing one of the most important people in my life to realize how much I love them and how much I really do need them.

I can be very stubborn and at times just plain ignorant. I like to think that I don't need anybody and that I'll be good with or without certain people in my life. But when things hit the fan and stuff starts to get ugly, you realize what is really important and whats not so important. I get so caught up in myself and in my ego that I convince myself that I can do whatever I want with no consequences.

This couldn't be farther from the truth. Whats done in the dark will eventually come to the light...this is an absolute truth. I did some things because I thought I could get away with them...I was absolutely wrong. The thing that gets me is that I know I'm better than that. I'm better than the decisions I have made. I've hurt the people I love, abused and mistreated them...starting today...starting right this second...I vow to be a better person. I promise to put more thought into my actions and make better decisions.

I've taken some time to reflect on my actions and just on my situation overall. I'm very fortunate and very blessed to have the people that I have in my life. With that said...Goodnight and God bless!
