Scratches lyrics

Its a strangely wonderful feeling to listen to a song and feel 100% understood. This art reminds me of how we are not so different after all.

In my opinion, the song really captures what its like to be wounded and blinded by life, but still trying to find meaning and connection. It touches on painful desperation, but also offers some solace that maybe some things happened for a reason.

It feels like he just gets it. Which makes me feel less alone

FREEMAN eclectic spotify

Hey all!

I was just browsing Aarons spotify page and it looks like he has contributed in small and large part to a plethora of projects including a bob dylan pastiche song with Slash.

Yeah like Slash slash. Super weird, but hey what do I expect? Anyone have some good recs from his solo page?

Shame is huge, and should be a main focus

Porn wants you to feel like a piece of shit. Thats how it gets you coming back.

So even if you feel disgusted by some of the rabbit holes youve been down, know that is common. You can still stand up in defiance agaisnt it, no matter how fae youve gone.

I am not condoning anything, and certain things are cause for shame. What Im saying is , there is hope. The farther you distance yourself, the more light that is shined on it (therapy, trusted loved ones), the more you can stand up without it.

For me, one of the only ways to disconnect myself was to deal with my shame. Practice self love, even when its hard to. Stop being so loudly critical. Speak to yourself like a friend would. That has made the world of difference

Healing woes

I hate how itchy my wounds get as they are healing. Its bad enough that it gets to that point. I wish I didnt have to be so cognizant of not scratching during the healing process

JR Smith

I just wanted to say this - the whole 2018 finals gaff is so blown out of proportion.

Number one. We were NOT winning that series. No way. KD was there and that team was unstoppable.

Number two. George Hill shouldve hit his FTs full stop. No excuse.

Number three. If Lebron had to drop a 50 peice and play 48 minutes for it to even be tied, no way he does that more than 1 or 2 more times in the series.

Lebron just reacted the way he did because it wasnt the desirable play and he was tired/had the team on his back the whole game.

A few options:

JR couldve heaved the ball back up. Which could have been a good play considering he is who he is. But in my opinion, no way it goes down considering the defense at the time.

Jr couldve passed the ball. No one was blatantly open at the time, so again imo not a great option.

TO is called and final play is drawn up. Best case scenario, but again even if we hit this, no way we win the series. My opinion.

Anyways, people label this as THE BIGGEST FINALS BLUNDER OF ALL TIME. Lol no it wasnt, not even close.

Yes Jr should have at least shot it. Ok. Ill give the naysayers that. But for the reasons above I feel like its completely blown out of proportion.

Brutal self reflection

Im doing my best with the fearless moral inventory. I really am seeing horrible patterns in my life. Im glad Im sober, but the pain is so white hot right now. I guess I just need some encouragement and words of relation. Its tough to keep moving forward

Therapy Pain

I feel as though Ive ran my life through the ringer in therapy. Ive done all the shadow work, reflection, exercises, talk, emdr, ect. Im sure there are things out there still to try. But Im just tired man. Its so hard opening everything up trying to heal over and over and still having so much addiction and pain issues.

I guess itd feel a bit better to hear if people can relate. I know this isnt an original thought or anything
