Coming to a end

I was standing in what can be considered a kitchen in a studio when the thought hit me.

I’m a pretty lousy person.

I think back to the relationship, or lack of it, with my daughter. It was pretty shitty. I only really understood my relationship with her when I was with her Mom. I understood marriage family, not single family.

I wasn’t selfish or just about me, I just didn’t know how to be a single weekend father.

I guess in a way I used my 2nd marriage to “cover” up all my failures with her.

But I really fucked up there and it’s too late to fix because she’s gone.

I seriously can’t stand being alone and try as I might these several years all I can do is just “power through” by sleeping and wasting the time away.

I don’t think I’ll ever turn it around and I don’t think anyone will ever care enough to help me.

So, where do I go from here? How do I go from here?

I think all you can do is do what we all try to – do the best you can.  Only you can change you and no one is going to “help” you, you have to help yourself.  No one is perfect, but all we can do is try to improve on who we are and what we can offer, each lesson to be learned from.  I know you are hurting, chin up and give it your best effort today.

I’m really so sorry for the hurt you must carry for your daughter. We all fail our children, but it really… no words for it…  when you don’t get the chance to change that. I am so sorry.
