I have been through a lot the last few years... I lost my dad, finished school ended up working in hell for 3 years in a foundry. A job I hated. I lost my mind, and got it back. I remember the day it happened, when all the meds and therapy just seemed to click one day and things changed... it was an overwhelming and strange sensation it was the first time i had clarity in my life and I was no longer the person I used to be. This whole year since that day in January.... has been me trying to figure out who I am and realizing there are a lot of mistakes that other person made that I would not have. My only option is to just keep going forward. Thinking about all this on a lonely Wednesday night, I decided to tinker with that portrait i made to show this change... It's how i feel now. I see almost a different face when i look in the mirror, but the eyes are the same... just less angry.
