I know I have not posted in quite some time. It has been hard with school and work. But tonight I post. Not only because I want to. But today has a little more meaning. September 1st... Today is one year since a friend of mine committed suicide.  Not a day goes by where I don't stop and think, man I wish we would have gotten closer. Been better friends. He always complimented my poetry skills. My writing ability. Always encouraged me to write. So here I am taking a moment to write. And since he was always the one to encourage me to write. I will continue to blog. Start updating more.  And because he is always the one that encouraged. I will start today, one year after his death. RIP Ian... We miss you and love you.
