A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO THOSE IN PAIN
January 2nd 2012 11:09
Here’s one of those Happy New Year greetings to the judged, the needy, the hurt, the damaged. Here’s a drink to the drinkers and a strip for the strippers. If you’ve been rejected before, I’m right here with you. 2012 doesn’t come with any promises. You’ll probably continue to have bad taste or continue to hear bad news and the outlook for some things may be downright hopeless, and you’ll probably still embarrass yourself once in a while and you’ll break your promises and you probably won’t be as charming as you want to be and there’ll be a bunch of people who’ll hate your guts. But there’ll be moments. There’ll be those strange moments you’d never have discovered if hadn’t experienced what you’d experienced, if you hadn’t said the things you have, and people will be jealous of you because of these. I’ve had an arsehole of a year, but probably not as big of an arsehole as yours. I salute you for the pain and I salute you for your strength and I especially salute you for your weaknesses and I drink and write like some kind of douche of a preacher with a desperate hope that you’ll keep on going; although I’m young I can say for certain that good things come not to those who wait, but for those who get out of their own pity and pain and work hard for something of value. Don’t think about 2012 – think about the things we can do with the rest of our lives.
Good night.
