Don't you hate it when you write something, get distracted by whatever, don't press save/edit and when you come back shift to another area and then realise all you wrote is gone forever? I should know by now to always copy, just in case, but mistakes happen, and it is only words. We can always write more words...but never those exact words.

I put all of me into everything I write and even though the words and ideas are still there, the arrangement...the feeling...the flow, can never be repeated, and this is what happened on my blog tonight.

It may only be a few words, but sometimes, it's a lot more, and at the time, can feel as if it is irreplaceable, but we move on...what else can we do. There will always be more words about other things, but in those first few moments of realisation, it hurts like a MF.

I wanted this, my first blog, to be something I will look back on and be proud of, but perhaps I am missing the point by thinking it is about the standard of mechanics or the words I write, and more to do with the standard of the man who writes these words. I am taking control of my life, which is all that matters when it comes down to it.

Thank you to all of you who support me...who send me words of encouragement and dare I say, love...which gives me strength, but also a deep appreciation of the responsibility I have to follow through...to not just repay that faith by remaining clean, but by paying it forward, and maybe one day, supporting someone who is not a stereotype, but another human being in need of a helping hand.

Today, I did not use.

One day at a time...one foot in front of the other.
