What I Wish I Could Have Again
One of the things I have battled my whole life with is the feeling of envy. You see I come from nothing. A dirt poor family of poorly educated imbeciles. A family of all for none, One for themselves attitudes. With a questionable family tree missing a few forks I suspect.

To be my better self with great advice I get here from a really cool fella you may have heard of. You are reading/writing in his community. So take his advice. Be your best self. For me this is a monumental challenge. But when I hang out here having a virtual #weekend-engagement #weekend-experiences
I go to a place in my minds eye when I walk virtually in to G-Dogs Bar & Grill. A make believe place in my head where it makes things a little easier. Even if for only a short period of time. Then it is right back to...
