Day 1 - And so it begins

If you are reading this, chances are that like myself you've found that life as we get older seems to be harder and harder to enjoy. When I was younger I was a very active person, I enjoyed all outdoor activities including hiking, camping, skateboarding, snowboarding, all and any sports, reading, and many other things. These days it seems as though I can't enjoy anything. I suppose that if I am to be completely honest in my blogging I need to let all my readers know that I have struggled with drug addiction pretty much my whole life. I hope that you all don't judge me too quickly. You wouldn't know that I was a drug addict by looking at me, in fact most of my friends and family did not know that I was abusing drugs. I feel that my many years of using has led to my problems with enjoying life these days. I have created this blog for many reasons, first off I am hoping that in sharing my story I might reach that one person and make a change in YOUR life. Maybe by reading about my troubles YOU will steer clear of making my mistakes! I am also interested in documenting "my road to happiness". I am making a promise to myself today that I am going to take the next 30 days to change my life, I have not given up hope yet and do not plan to. I deserve to be happy and so do YOU! So your job as a reader is to challenge me, question me and just follow me on this crazy journey I plan to make. I thank anybody who takes the time to read anything that I post as I know you don't have to take time from your life to read about mine.
