Slaying Those Dragons - Introduction

There are things I’d never do as a writer, things I would never say or publish, things such as gossip, or anything that may shine a dark light on the people I care about, which is just about everyone, but I have no qualms about writing about my own struggles, my own monsters!  I know that some people think that I cross the line between what should be public and what should remain private when I blog, and I’ll concede that perhaps I do, but it’s always done with diligence and care, and for what I believe is a valid reason.  The thing is, too many people choose to remain silent on issues which could help others realize that they are not alone, that there is hope, I choose not to be the silent one!  Besides, it’s therapeutic for me to share what I am, or have been going through.  I offer these sharings, not for pity, but for information, in hopes that they may help someone who is suffering in silence.

My life is not different than most peoples’ lives, I have great days, in-between days, and bad days, but I have learned some valuable tools along the way to help me cope, though there are still many tools left to discover and if you happen to know one or two, by all means, please share them with me.  Now, I could simply blog a list of these tools I’ve learned, some would say that’s nice, others would say I’m crazy because without context these tools will mean nothing to the still suffering person.  The only context I am free to give is that which comes from my own life, everybody else’s life is none of my business unless of course, they give me permission to talk about it.  For now, at least, I will stick with my own life, my own struggles, and my own solutions.

This blog post, although somewhat different from my others, is an introduction to a series of blog posts that I intend to publish on Wednesdays and Sundays over the next few weeks, highlighting different struggles I have faced and how I am, or have resolved them.  This series is dedicated to you, my readers, and to the countless people facing their own struggles, may peace and serenity find you now!

Love you all!
