Hey Kody, man I don't think we have met but I second C.Smock's last comment. Life is an experience whether good, bad, or indifferent; however you dictate the fruitfulness of this thing called life. If it is people that are bringing you down (including family) shed some of that dead weight. You will appreciate it in the long run. Outside of my immediate family (Mother, sisters, and my brother) I don't call, visit, or bother with my other family members. I want a life filled with Peace, Joy, and Wealth. Not wealth monetarily speaking, but a life rich in experiences (good, and not so good), friends, relationships, family, and comfortable and overflow of finances. In this life it is about perspective and the attitude in which you view and receive things in. What are you gaining by locking yourself away from the world? What are you gaining from not fellowshipping with some guys/girls who don't mind being transparent and helpful. Bro I strongly suggest you come out and shed the dead weight, frustration, depression, and whatever else is bothering you bro. I hope you can take this and digest it and it help you in some shape, form, or fashion. I wish you Peace ad Blessings!!!!!
