This is the day ladies and gentlemen, this is the one year anniversary of The Truth as the Snake Sees It. This is Truth number 52. I must say that I hope that in the past year that you have enjoyed reading the Truth as much as I have enjoyed typing it. You know, at first I thought that I should do something extra special for the one year anniversary, then I thought about it a little more and I couldn’t think of anything that would really be more special than anything else that I have ever typed in the Truth.
In the past year we have covered a lot of things together. There have been numerous celebrity sex scandals, numerous wrestling matches, politics, movies, books, and a lot about who I am, the way I think, and what I believe. We have been through some highs in my life and we have been through some lows. One thing we know for sure is that no matter what it is I want you to be a part of it. You have stood by my side through thick and thin. I just want to say thank you to all my loyal fans that have been with me this past year. If not for you I wouldn’t be who I am and I sure as hell wouldn’t be typing so much. LOL None the less, THANK YOU and lets make this next year even better than this past year!!!!!
As most, if not all, of you know this past couple weeks have been one helluva an emotional rollercoaster for me, it truly has. So earlier today I took the beautiful Princess Jezabel with me to Hemlock lake to enjoy the day, do a little fishing, and set back and reflect over the years and over my life in general. After eleven years of going to Hemlock Lake, I did something that I have never done at that particular lake. I caught a fucking fish. LMFAO I have never really went for the fishing, Hemlock has just always been a great place to think with lots of great memories. :D
Either way, catching the fish wasn’t exactly the most important thing that happened during our little trip to the lake. I was just excited to finally be able to say that I caught a fish out of the lake. LMAO For some reason I think that when we are at the lake, or in the woods the Princess and I bond the most. We talk about everything, and surprisingly for a seven year old the Princess has a lot of very in depth and thoughtful things to say. I don’t think there is anything better in this world than to have Princess Jezabel snuggled up against me as close as she can get while she looks up and says, “Daddy, you are the best Daddy ever, I love you.”
Yeah, in my opinion it doesn’t get much better than that. Her and I laughed, played, and talked for several hours today. After our day at the lake, I think I have came to a few different conclusions based on our conversations and my reflections on my life. Which, I find it kinda backwards or maybe even a little ironic that I talk to my daughter so that I can find the answers instead of her talking to me so I can give her the answers. LOL She comes to me for everything, so I shouldn’t say it that way, but it is just odd to me that some of the best answers I find come from when I am discussing everything with my little Princess.
Now, I’m not going to tell you what my little girl and I talked about in detail, because, well, that’s private and I have given her my word on many occasions that what we talk about stays between her and I only. I have no plans or desires to betray her trust, so I’m going to leave the details out. LOL None the less, I will say that even at her young age her words were very powerful and made it much easier to reflect on my life and my past.
To quote a great woman, “The past is the past and what is done is done and can’t be changed.”
Those words are very accurate words, and in fact words that I have used myself when talking to other people; however, they never really sank in until just today. Maybe its because I get hit in the head to much. LOL Either way, truer words have never been spoken. That being said, I would also like to disagree with parts of that after thinking about that statement. The past is the past. That is 110% right the past is the past. No matter how much we may or may not want to change the past we can’t. We may love or hate the past, but it is what it is and can’t be changed.
Moving on, what is done is done and can’t be changed. This is partly true. What is done technically is done; however, I think that in some cases it can be changed. Let me give you examples, if I was to kick you well that can’t be changed, I can’t un-kick you. On the other hand if you have a glass of water setting on the table and I knock it over spilling it all over the floor. I can clean up the mess, refill your glass, and put it back to where it was before I knocked it over and everything is as good as new. So sure, I didn’t change the fact that I knocked over your first glass; I did however, fix what happened and we can move on.
Either way you look at it, technically when something is done I think that in most cases it can either be undone or at the very least fixed and made right. None the less, perhaps you or I did something to a person and they don’t agree that is can be undone or made right again, that is ok to. If we all lived the same lives and believed the same things this would be a very boring world that we live in, and boring just fucking sucks. LOL
No matter which way of thinking you choose to believe, there is one thing that remains the same and one thing that we can all agree on and believe. We all move on from the past and we should all learn from the past so we don’t make the same mistakes twice. An even better way of learning though is to learn from the mistakes that other people have made. You see at some point we have all been told that a smart person learns from their own mistakes, and well, that is a true statement. In my opinion though even though a smart person learns from their own mistakes a wise person learns from the mistakes of others and never makes the mistakes in the first place.
Anyway, I am rambling on and on…. I guess I should get to the point. In the past year of reading the truth I am sure that you have seen at least one mistake that I have made and I’m sure its been a lot more than that, please be a wise person and learn from my mistakes so that you never make them yourself.
I do have a bit of news that I think is exciting, I don’t know if you will find it exciting, but I want to share with you. Over the years I have had a hobby that I have kept to myself for the most part with only a few of my closest friends knowing about it. I have always been amazed with magic and magic shows. So over the years I have studied magic in my spare time. I haven’t made any decision just yet, but I am thinking that in the near future I am going to but an act together that would last between 45 minutes to an hour. More than likely 50 minutes with a 10 minute intermission in the middle. LOL
I have been working on a new wardrobe, and learning bigger illusions and magic effects before I put it all together. I just wanted to let you know that there is a possibility that by the end of this year, the beginning of next year, or hell maybe even sooner, you will be able to watch see the one and only Snakeman Deven Michaels performing a magic show and possibly taking booking to do magic at parties and other events.
I don’t know for sure yet or not if I am going to go through with this idea, but it is an idea that I have been toying with for the past couple weeks. It seems like a solid idea to me and there is right now at this point a 80% chance that this will be happening, but I will let you know for sure when I process the idea a little more.
Until next time,
