Want to know how little control we have over the circumstances of our lives? Yesterday I was sick, at home, with an internet connection that wasn’t working and, later in the day, a telephone that didn’t work.
And there wasn’t a damn thing I could do about any of it, so there was no real point in getting angry about it either.
Angela and I went to Chickamauga National battlefield memorial while we were in Chattanooga over the weekend. There’s something about standing in a place where 34,000 men lost their lives over the course of just a few days that really puts all of life’s little problems in perspective.

That’s why i said i think i been abused because of the so called “brain washing” method they tried to do. I’ve always felt it was my fault. I am now 16 turning 17 next week this october.
