    You’re just lucky. I too feel like I’ve lived through multiple lifetimes. They all went by in a flash.

    I’ve been hard on my body and mind though. I’m a dumb hillbilly who started having kids when I was 16. I spent a decade as a functional heroin addict. Functional because I have family that gave a damn about me and I’m so antisocial that I had the discipline to have a week’s supply and not burn through it because the thought of dealing with people was enough to make me pause (mostly). Otherwise I would have been in the gutter with everyone else.

    I’ve been through the wringer. Maybe that’s part of it. I don’t know.

    Life is funny.
