I never did understand how someone so funny, whose poetry and notes made me laugh and cry could be so troubled.<BR/>I'm glad that you are sharing your amazing journey and for many of us who cared about you insights into your demons.<BR/>After a long time of not knowing where you where, its great to see the your enormous talents again come alive.<BR/>With affection,<BR/>Corycoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10552017440331411497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6026171904413475346.post-1783557738789473942009-02-01T00:34:00.000-08:002009-02-01T00:34:00.000-08:00The only things left to hide are the things still ...The only things left to hide are the things still hidden from me. I can not know what they are until they are revealed to me and then known. That is when they too will become part of the stripping bare of myself for anyone to see and that is the process that continues to unfold here. It is not pleasant, at all, for me to remember in detail these things that I did while loaded and insane. But for once and for all to reveal this story is a long time dream of mine in setting the record straight. I continue to receive emails about anger from well meaning people, but it is truly my prayer, that after reading this story those who so harshly judge me will mitigate that judgement with facts, as I attempt to display, the amount of damage done to me by my own recklessness. I seek not to justify my sometimes questionable behavior, but to ask, that due consideration be given to the effects of physical and emotional damage done to me by myself.Bobby Jamesonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01527521612297449370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6026171904413475346.post-46331405534465542872009-01-30T16:36:00.000-08:002009-01-30T16:36:00.000-08:00Good work, Bobby.

That too, is one of your great skills: you are able, both through temporal cognizance (then) and introspective reflection (now), to make meaning of the events of your life. Your tenacity in climbing that tower, the drive, is characteristic of not only the eight years of frustration and disillusionment, characteristic not only of the suicide attempts and the consciously destructive behavior, but it is characteristic of much of the rest of your life, including the writing of this blog.Tim McMullenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04840770464754311701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6026171904413475346.post-35227838684913570782009-01-28T23:24:00.000-08:002009-01-28T23:24:00.000-08:00I'd have to say I'm stunned too, for lack of a bet...I'd have to say I'm stunned too, for lack of a better word. <BR/>I love your writing!
