Reflections - Chpater 2
Hearing that door close and lock behind me was, one of only 2 times in my life where I have been truly terrified. The other being in the delivery room for the birth of my first child. I knew the minute that I heard the lock turn over in the tumbler that my live was never going to be the same. I had "run away from home" several times in the 6 years since I had been adopted but I had always known that I had the opportunity to come home, and I would be welcomed with open arms. Now that was no longer an option and I just stood there for what felt like an eternity wondering exactly what I was going to do and where I was going to go. I guess here would be a good opportunity to discuss with you at least a part of my childhood. And with that I mean my adoption and the situation surrounding it.

This is not going to be a short story so strap in and possibly grab some popcorn if that's your thing. for me it’s a nice glass of scotch (however the bottle is very close) that is needed as writing this is going to force me to confront some very deep intrenched demons that I have spent the better part of my life trying to bury. I got the inspiration to do this after a very dear friend of mine started posting on here some of the struggles he is currently going through, and with Recent events happening in my life with someone very close to me. Her situation which is not exactly the same as what I went through, but many of the situations I have found myself in when I hit rock bottom in my life are mirrored by things she is going through at this very moment. And my lack of ability to help her has made me feel like maybe I have not done enough in my life to confront my darker chapters.
