This is what is called a "blog", otherwise known as a public online journal. It will document personal / professional updates. Warning: May contain inside jokes, discreet arrogance (pardon the paradox - pardon the alliteration), and other forms of absurdity. I'd rather you not use what I've written in these entries against me, but I'm 99.9% sure you will. Prove me wrong.

lived it for you

It’s a funny thing, what you’ve been able to do to me.  I used to listen to the bass guitar without wanting to hear you play it yourself.  There are only certain small parts that I remember about the life I had before you.

I don’t know if you can tell the amount of relief and gratitude I feel knowing that the difficulty I endured in the past led me to you.  You know, I didn’t have to put up with those things.  I could have curled up and surrendered - in fact, I attempted to do so many times.  Yet, the hope of finding purpose within a friend’s soul stayed with me.  It was you, Jimmy.  All along, you really existed.  From the depths of my being, I knew you were there.  You kept me fighting.
