I Discovered!!

After 39 years of Life I have finally come to terms with Life!
It has been a long hard road with lots of heartache, loss, joy, laughter and much much more!                  
I Discovered that drinking does not take away the pain just mask it and when you wake up the next day it is still there. So I no longer drink to kill the pain but just drink when I feel like it and not at home alone ever!
I Discovered one must be true to ones self first and formost. If you are not happy with yourself then you can never ever make another person happy either as a friend or partner!
I Discovered that friends are a dime a dozen but only the ones willing to listen to you and let you lead your life as you wish are only the real true ones. The ones that try to tell you what you should do or whom you should see or try to redirect your life are not your true friends. True Friends means accepting that friend no matter the choices they make and staying their friend even in hard times.
I Discovered that there is more to life than being in a realtionship. I can be happy all alone! Yes I said happy alone! Never ever would I have thought I would have said that but it is true! A person can be totally happy with life and the world around them once they understand that it does not take 2 to make you a whole!
I Discovered that trust is something someone has to earn with me. In the past I have trusted not only my heart but my life with people I only knew for a few days! Well this is something that is going to have to be earned now days!
I Discovered that even though your family says they Love You they can still hurt you in many ways. I Love my Family but they way they show their Love Hurts to Much!
I Discovered Life is not about how much money you earn, how nice your house or apt looks, how big your house is, what name brand clothes you wear.
In All Life is about being yourself and happy with yourself and no one else!
After 39 years I am finally ready to say I am getting very close to being Happy with myself!
