			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The past couple of days have been a whirlwind of emotions, bringing back the painful memories from a couple of years back when my [former] best friend and I got into a big fight about her son.</p>
<span style="text-align:center; display: block;"><a href="http://xadness.wordpress.com/2011/07/25/the-show-goes-on/"><img src="http://img.youtube.com/vi/Rmp6zIr5y4U/2.jpg" alt="" /></a></span>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>So this time, it&#8217;s much worse, involving her son once more . I am heartbroken, cried for a couple of days, felt horribly misunderstood and tried reaching out to my close friends, or people I thought were close to me/ cared enough to realize that I needed help dealing.</p>
<p>Help, comfort and care came from unexpected places and people and of course my usual inner circle. Unfortunately, I did find out that people I thought way more of, lacked care. Painful, no doubt, but nothing I cannot handle right now, considering the bigger picture &#8230; losing one or two people I held close and I supported through their tough times sucks, but I know I am loved and I know what I have to offer &#8230;</p>
<p>I got through the initial crisis / rough couple of days and am back in fight mode and ready to handle / deal with whatever is coming &#8230; because I know this is only the beginning of a very long and painful situation and I am going to do everything in my power to give it a happy ending &#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I believe I have finally gotten a grip on my nearly 1.5 year depression and I am looking forward to starting to write some more again. These past 18 months have been a roller coaster of emotions and has been pure hell for the people who care about me as I have been so silent and withdrawn. I hope it&#8217;s not too late to start picking up the pieces and move forward to a more positive future.</p>

<p>Happy New Years !</p>
<p>I got inspired by my [cyber] friend Chad Williams. His friend started a project called <a href="http://stirringthingsup.wordpress.com/101-in-1001/" target="_blank">101 in 1001</a> . Basically you complete 101 preset tasks in a period of 1001 days. Here&#8217;s his list : <a title="Chad's List " href="http://www.thechadwilliams.com/101-in-1001" target="_blank">http://www.thechadwilliams.com/101-in-1001</a></p>
<p>I am going to create a list goals as well. Some will be fun and easy, some will be painful and most will be hard, as I always chose to do stuff that I regret later &#8230;</p>
<p>Lets see what happens !</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Things happen. sometimes good, other times bad.</p>
<p>One wrong decision can have such a major impact on your life &#8230; and have a ripple effect on other people&#8217;s life.</p>
<p>What do you do? When do you give up? How do you fix things ?</p>
<p>It&#8217;s all about choosing to make better decisions, to take a different approach to situations than before, to respect yourself, to respect others .</p>
<p>I am trying hard every day to be better, to do what&#8217;s right, but God it&#8217;s hard and circumstances can make it so easy to slip back, but I am fighting hard &#8230;</p>
<p>Life is one big challenge &#8230;</p>
