In 2000 I sat alone in a Jacuzzi Suite on the 14th floor of The Panama City Beach Raddison on Christmas Day with a pistol in my mouth trying to build up the nerve to end my life. Drug addicted , ashamed, depressed, lonely, and alienated I couldnt see a light at the end of my tunnel. My Mom called me and during the over hour phone call of me sobbing & having a nervous breakdown she said to me that basically you never know what tomorrow will bring, and that good things cant happen if I dont let them. Those words as cliche as they are I believe saved my life that day. It took a little while, but from that day forward Ive been a different Man. These days Im far from perfect, and far from rich, but I have everything I need, some of the things I want, Im debt free, drug free , Im healthy, and Im gratefully living a life I never imagined back in 2000. The point is no matter how bad you might think things are dont turn to a permanent solution to temporary problems. You dont know what tomorrow brings, and Life itself is the greatest X-mas gift of all . May you all have a Very Merry Christmas !!
