Positive....dammit!!!
Hey guys. Just wanted to touch base. Life has been weird but it is good. Thank you for your grace and your guidance. I am very fortunate to live the life I have. Somedays I get it right. Other days....well....somedays I get it right.... I am coming into a bit of an awakening in my life and seeing things much clearer. Groups like this have been instrumental in my journey. Thank you for being here for men. It is an honour to be a small part of this.

Just gonna leave this here...
Just feeling defeated.....
Hey guys. Nothing too heavy but, man, do I feel defeated today. I just can't with this fucking world today. I am so sick of having to pay for a society that is actively trying to do away with me. Why do I have to give a shit for every special interest, left wing, indigenous or rainbow nazi group on a soapbox while my beliefs and core values are summarily dismissed or, worse, actively persecuted? Fucking tired.

@Matt Eppy thanks for weighing in. Just a shit day. Loads of things stacking up. The things I usually do to unwind are now being packed up for winter. A transitional season in more ways than one....

@Matt Eppy Thanks man. I appreciate it. I know I need to do what I need to do to stay up. I keep getting distracted by the useless things of this world. Part of it is there is SOOOOOO much I can't control and it kinda drives me nuts....

Just remember, your message is just your mess with age. My father said "Good judgement comes from experience and experience comes from poor judgement". Your mistakes are the one thing that are truly your that no one wants to steal. Own them. They are as much you as your victories.
Start here: Introduce yourself !
Welcome to Anchored & Ready. Before you start digging through everything, take a minute and introduce yourself below. Tell us: Who are you? Work, family, where you’re from, whatever feels relevant. What does life look like right now? Good, heavy, busy, changing, somewhere in between. What’s one thing you’d like to get back under control? Your health, routines, stress, relationships, work, direction, or something you’ve been putting off. You don’t need to write an essay or make it sound impressive. Just keep it real and give us somewhere to start. Drop your introduction in the comments below.

Good morning. James here. I am 59 years old and I have been married for almost 30 years (not sequentially.....). I have battled addiction, spiritual battles, three daughters and two exes.... I am living in Yellowknife NT Canada. I am looking forward to the mentorship journey I am embarking on. Thank you for the opportunity to share and be a part.

@Jeff Van Dam thank you. I am currently walking through a process that has been years in the making. It has been quite a year; I quit drinking (that's a story in and of itself.....), started a new job, knocking down the coffee intake, quit the band (another fun story...) and much more. All in pursuit of a better me. Which brings me here... I was made aware if this place by my (new) counsellor. Yet another new development in my life. I am looking forward to being an active part of the group. Be well and talk soon.
