So much has happened since then...matter of fact my life took a seriously crazy turn...about 11 years ago today...what the fuck was I thinking?
I guess we all live and learn...and if we don't learn...and keep doing the same stupid things and expect the same results...why that's just crazy...LITERALLY...you cannot change people...and you certainly cannot help them if they don't want to help themselves...I have given up the need to help the wounded birds...and decided mmm they are tasty with some lovely carrots and herbs...
Well one thing is certain...I got out before it killed me...and frankly it nearly did... I lost so much of myself and I freely admit I gave up that control...I made that bed and I lay in it for 9 and a few very very lonely years...then one day I woke up and went... what? who am I and why is my beard down around my ankles? A bird answered me saying, "I don't know Rip but where are you going in that handbasket?"
I have made so many friends in the last year...and gotten back in touch with so many who thought I had actually left the planet...its great to reconnect with those deemed not suitable...they still love me and I them...
and speaking of love...really...I never knew the meaning of the word...well..I knew of unrequited love...but now I KNOW what it feels like to REALLY BE loved...deep unconditional love with no bounds...
So take that! All you naysayers and snake charmers...put that in your pipes and smoke it...the WOLF is BACK baby!!!
I hope in this year to come that you all truly FEEL love...know it and hold it dear it really only comes around once in a lifetime...
Hugs and wishing you all... a very very happy new year!
