Yeah, I was hospitalised with viral encephalitis ten years ago and made homeless while I was catatonic, since then I haven't really been able to get back into a good position although I did manage to get my MSc a couple of years ago. No career to speak of although people consider me a useful guy. It's a shame how these things happen.

That's life for you. All we can really do is make the best of the cards we've been dealt. But no matter how bad it gets, there's still millions of people who have gotten even worse than we could imagine.

I've had a lot of bad experiences and I've made my share of fuck ups along the way, but I also made a lot of good choices and had some good experiences too. There's some things I would have liked to change if I could start over, but overall it hasn't been too bad. All those experiences for good or bad made me who I am and made me really think about how I treat others around me and those that I care about.
