I may not know

I may not know a whole lot about anything and I know

not what I am doing most of the time and no matter how

long I have tried or even how hard I will never know 

a damn thing about woman or life that's all I need to say

but I do know money can never buy you love and 

I know that I should not think about all that 

I had lost back in the past or even the things today 

that I do not have while worrying about the 

very few that I do, especially knowing already 

that they will never last anyways for very long,

so what I need to really do in my life is to try very 

hard to always remember that the only things 

that ever should really matter are all of our 

precious memories along with all of those 

people who have somehow or in some way no 

matter how much or even little touched our hearts 

who will until forever ends always live deep down within 

our souls becoming just a little bit a part of who 

I am or who we are to take with us into all of the 

eternity while the sands of time go on all the 

while giving praise to way high up above to God 

and all his glory for giving me or you all the hope 

and strength that we will ever need to go on in 

this life moving forward no matter what may 

come along, never giving up on any of your 

dreams or anything or anyone whom you love. 

Material things no matter how much they cost or 

how little it was or how many hours you worked 

for them, unlike a life or spending precious time 

with your husband, child, or wife can always be 

replaced it is not a race to collect how much you 

can so yes "he who at the end who has the most will 

win" but only when it comes to love do you understand? 

so try and love everyone that you can, do not judge

anyone you do not know where they have come 

and try to forgive those who have done you wrong

for they do not know what they do, so reach out 

and try to help everyone in any way you know-how

hand in hand until the whole world and I mean 

every single father, mother, uncle, brother, aunt, 

sister and child, are all holding each other's  hands 

together as one race the human race and all are 

citizens of this planet we call earth.

To all of those who have stood behind me in my fight for Ryder and the battles we fight every day and any and all who are my fans and readers you are family to me who have touched my heart in love, peace, and understanding thank you for being a part of who I was yesterday, the man I am right now today and whomever I will be tomorrow for as every single drop of ink that I have spilled whether it be for anger, love, hate, guilt, joy, happiness, hope, despair or sorrow was written down on paper out of depression, PTSD, hurt, anger, and all of the pain that I have endured of every kind so I could start to heal and so all of you would not need to and know that I have walked down the same paths been through darkness survived every storm just know that you are never alone for I am right there by your side.
