Hello Everyone, Today was just going by so well as the sky is cloudy and gray, along with the smell of leaves burning on a cool crisp Autumn day, until I gotten 3 surprises shook me up. The first surprise was from my long distance cousin who I've haven't spoken to in a long time. I finally gotten to speak to him because a few years ago he was dealing with the pain of finding out that his father is gay. He told me his reaction and how it hurt that he was the last person to be notified. You see, the way everyone found out was on the news. He has HIV and tried to have sex with another man without telling the man that he was HIV positive. My cousin was so embarrassed because that's his father. We spoke for a long time, and I told him that I tried to call him on the day his father was on the news, but the number was old and disconnected. Just when I thought my blast from the past was over, my other cousin returned after being kicked out of my aunt house 7 years ago. She has a daughter now, yet still looks the same. What shook me up about her was that as soon as I thought about her, my phone rung and when I answered, I heard "Guess who?" I froze when I heard her voice. We talk for a little while, but then my 3rd ghost from the past brought tension along with the surprise. My former drug addicted uncle Arthur pulled up in the drive way. You see, this is the man that physically abused me when I was 6 years old. I use to cry as I was getting kicked and pounded across the back with closed fists by this man. He verbally abused me by calling me every confidence destroying name in the book. He lefted, then returned when I was 17 years old and tried to abuse me again. This time. . . I fought back hard. He recieved a black eye and I got away as he was coming at me with a piece of lumber. This was the man that affected me psychologically. He was here in my living room laughing and talking to my mom and sister, but as soon as he looked at me. . . he gave me a nasty glare. The tension was so thick, you could cut it with a butter knife. Right now, I'm so frustrated because all of this happened in one day. I really hope I get no more surprises because I hate surprises.
Hey Mikey, Yeah, I have to agree that it is lame how no one responds anymore, but Thanksgiving is around the corner so you just might have to look at that too. I know firsthand that I don't respond to other people's post too often because I don't want to get blasted. To me, words can be as appealing like a ribbon in the wind or as hurtful like a bucket of daggers being over turned above you. Mikey, I just want to say that you seem pretty cool and you seem to have a very creative mind judging from your posts. I will try to respond to your posts from now on. Take care bro, and have a Happy Thanksgiving.
Well they say everything happens in 3's so I think u're llucky it all happened in ONE day...so I hope and I will send all the good vibes I can muster from way over here...that ONLY good things are in store for you NOW
