It was about 12 years ago that i was brought to meet my new family. i was born to a teenaged mother who couldn't take care of me at the age of 14 and was nothing but a drug head. now i am 17 and i look back at that day and it makes me mad because i know i wasn't fortunate enough to stay with that family. so i really took an interest in writing because it helps me relief stress. when i had my open hart surgery i got really frustrated and thought god was punishing me for the person that i was. and i kept on thinking to myself that the easiest way out is by taking my life but i never had the balls to do it. Im glad i never to my life becasue all the people who love me would be the ones who are the most devastated. the life that i have Right now is one of the most amazing life's i van ever ask for i show animals for FFA and Rodeo and Livestock Judge. My livestock judging Team is one of the best in the nation our team was second at nationals and now we our off to the world competeion

Keep writing...it is a good therapy too as you have discovered..

Best wishes,

I am a professional horse trainer, so I know what it is you are doing and recognize your success.
I also just had quadruple bypass surgery a month ago, so I have that one covered too.
I may know you better than anyone else around you.
Do not kill yourself.
Think on this:
God does not punish. God only accepts your bad decisions with sadness. He gave you the right to choose (free will) how you live your life. He will never punish you. Ever.
Do what you do for His glory because He gives you everything you "need" (not necessarily want).
Sounds like things are going well. Go with it.
Now, I'm back and you should join the workshop. Go to the main thread (workshop/Classic Forms/syllabus is how you get there. Write any of the three described and try to have fun doing so.

It was the most dangerous thing I have ever done and yes, my life's perspective has changed considerably. I'm very glad to be back.
