First of all, I am so sorry my first post was a screw up.... For those who noticed and now know. My uncle @mrunderstood is allowing me to live with him and his family for awhile. I was using his computer and I thought I had logged out of his account and into mine, but I accidentally posted my introduction on his account. I edited it and erased it, and texted him to tell him what I did... He introduced me to steem and sold me on the anonymity, and now I publicized a connection between us, which kind of takes a bit of that away. Anyhow...
I have made a lot of mistakes in my life. I have served time in prison. I have deceived people and manipulated people for my benefit. I have hurt people. That is not who I am, it is a result of a long series of very bad choices I made and trusting people I should not have. Not quite the normal introduction I supposed, but I have learned blunt honesty is the best policy.
I have been reading on here for a long time and it seems like a good group of people, I finally got the nerve to create an account and give it a try. I am here primarily because I feel like I need to anonymity of the blockchain based social media platform to talk and be myself.
I am in my mid 40's and starting my life over, and I have to say it has been very eye opening. As many people before me have said... If only I knew then what I knew now... but looking at the past will only make me sad, looking at the future I believe everything is positive.
Ok, all that being said. My interests are life in general, the outdoors, my kids... I am a health nut and will likely write a lot about ideas I try out and find benefit from. I may go off on rants at times, but nothing bad. I tend to think as I type and almost through the writing if that makes sense. If I ever become too confusing, please tell me and I will try to explain better.
Well, If anyone is still reading at the point I may have some hope of finding a place to call my own and a community of people that I can interact with. I hope that will be the case.

One of the things I love to say to young people is to live a life worth talking about. Many today have put being "normal" on a pedestal. You definitely have an interesting story to tell!
Well done for being on here and sharing your story.
