Thinking Outloud
I was just setting her today and i just started writing the things that have been running through my mind. I write a lot of things in my journal and I write a lot of personal messages at times to others here on DS.
Sometimes, people take me the wrong way and sometimes people shy away from me when they see I am an ex-biker and/or a preacher. I have been told that preahers aren;t very welcome on this site but, that's ok.
Since comig to DS, I have tried to be a shoulder to lean on for those who are carrying a heavy load. I read other journals and I send messages to let others know that I genuinely care for them and about them. Some never answer my messages and sometimes this bothers me because I cared enough to take time and write them, at least they could acknowledge that they received my messages. When I question some of them as to why they don't answer me, the get defensive and blame me for bothering them. I care about those who are on my friends list and if these "friends" don't want to hear from me, then they can remove me from this friends list. I may be one of the oldest guys here and I may be from the "Old School" but, I thought that is what friends are for. To care and share with one another!!!!!! When I read posts of those who are hurting, I contact them and try to help them. I show genuine love and concern for them because, as a young man, I had no-one show love and concern for me. I strive to be an enourager and to be there for those who feel they have no-one. It's kind of a mystery that a drunken, drug using, tattooed, hell raising ex-biker would be showing genuine love and concern for others. The physical and the emotional scars I carry, tell the true story of why I do what I do and, why I do it. I guess if I have to explain it, most wouldn't understand it anyway. Those of you who know me well here know that I am genuine, sincere, and I am what I say I am.
