    - Some really positive feedback and conversations about future opportunities from my CEO

    - My partner cooking dinner tonight

    - My dad being so supportive and helping my son so much

    # To stand in the mirror and say I am able to confront my family and friends individually to define my addiction in smoke and mirrors for 19 years and to end my early stage meth use as best as I can. I will fail to succeed and each time I will learn more to define myself as worthy, human and positive.

    # To be honest to my family, especially my brother(s) for whom I have the upmost deepest respect for (1) to NOT to accept the drug inside their hearts, but who have educated themselves to identify my alter-versions under the influence and continue to hope, find and see me inside I fairly and succeed each time and hopefully less and less in-between. While early days and very rocky beginnings, I acknowledged my honesty, my willingness and transparency.

    # Today 18 MAY 2023, I tattooed (inked) my right hand with the Eye of the Osiris - It’s the shield, the over powerful and willingness to protect and keep evil, poison and danger afar … Whilst granting right to serenity and deserved fruits of life! This symbol is sign of tribulation and abilities to create newfound positive revelations !! For I am worthy, and have always been so!
