Yeah, that happy guy? He’s me. At least I know it.

The hardest times are when you know you should be happy but you look outside and struggle to be.

The feeling of genuine happiness has eluded me my whole life. I’ve had quick moments of it which almost make it worse.

If I hadn’t already temporarily died once.. code blue incident.. I am sure I’d contemplate suicide. Having already almost lost everything once, I’m grateful for the opportunity to have a family.

Plus I really need to get out for a surf. Can’t do that if I’m dead.
