SWIMMING IN A SEA OF SHARKS

Its been over a year since I peeped into the online social media profile, the public display of an individual I had moved 3,000 miles for to dedicated years of my professional/personal life too.
Without the journey through this experience I would not have connected with hundreds of people that have effected my life in a multitude of ways albeit personally, professionally and spiritually. Although some of the connections have painful ties, most have been rewarding and life changing.

The level of stress I experienced due to keeping a handful of heavy heads above water on a daily basis had literally stolen years from my living a healthy life.
The insurmountable challenge of wellness do to stress related health conditions, brought on solely by my lack of ability to prioritize the care of myself before others, has been overcome without the use of tactical Psychic Vampirism, mass manipulation or the abuse of privilege.

This journey was a self discovered puzzle piece in a vast picture that is never ending.
I reflect on the years past and the sacrifices made. The most valuable lesson in all of this has been simple.
If you choose to swim in a sea of Sharks you must be a strong swimmer and trust no one. 
Sharks have one priority and that is in seeking blood. Seek and destroy.

You're either a strong swimmer moving amongst predators or you're Shark, a creature of destruction, master of manipulation and cunning with insidious means.
