It’s not important for the project, but I had a pretty challenging childhood, and I had a lot of trouble with friends betraying me and choosing to move on from me in cruel ways. I’m not here to dwell on that.
When I found my people, I discovered a group whose interests and experiences aligned with my own, and forged long-term friendships, some lifelong, which carried me through some of the most challenging parts of my life.
The four of us could not have been more different. Each had their own strengths and weaknesses, but the important part of our story is that we learned to be men around each other. We grew and experienced the world in technicolour, learning who we were in the blazing sun of our home.
These were formative chapters in my story, each of them forming a part of who I became. Even though I do not travel the same road as each of them, I love them all for who they were to me.
Blessed be.
There is another hidden path here as well, at least one that can be shared. I already broke a rule later in the process, so a little more Lost History leaks out here. It's all a part of the process.
Desire is a dangerous thing in unformed minds. It's like a fire you can't control, no matter how much you might want to. If you lose control of it, you can burn those around you and even yourself.
