REBORN

"The time is finally here, after a long year of dealing with health, personal, emotional and financial obstacles, I am ready to bring Mauro back, stronger, wiser, more in touch with his emotions, more caring, funnier, healthier, goal seeker and achiever, I am coming home, back to my roots, the best guide for life."

So much has happened in such a short amount of time, countless teas rolled down my face, endless sleepless nights, the games, the lies, the disrespect, the cheating, the lost friend, the found friend, the lost lover, the fake lover, the Status, the ups and downs, the dreams, the reality, the constant inner battle, the low point thoughts, my family, my best friend, my new found hobby, my lost interest, dummer yet wiser, emotional yet finally in control, the pills, the side effects, the low self steem, the greater than life image, the painful fallings, the victorious risings, the lost time, the gained knowledge, the wasted feelings, the learned experiences, losing a job unfairly, learning my position in life and who my real friends are, losing my health insurance, learning to fight for what I need and more knowledge of what resources there are, the humiliation, learning my strengh, a sad birthday, the reason to continue living, the lonely nights sleeping on the floor, learning to be humble again, learning I'm not alone, accepting that is ok to ask for help when needed, the mind games, the tool I needed to create a stronger mind, gaining 30 pounds, losing 35 pounds, realizing that the mind and heart play a major role in our daily well being, giving chances, learning more about myself...all these and more in one year...a year that I never saw coming, through it all, I can say, the experiences were well needed lessons in order to move into the next chapter of my life...have no clue of what that might be, or where it will take me or what would I do...whatever is comimg my way, it will be good, exciting, refreshing, fullfilling...I know it in my heart...no matter what comes next, I will succeed, I will win, I will rise, I would continue to be me...Mauro!
