Some thoughts I want to unload!

If you are familiar with my old web and blog there is a difference in the names and I want to point out the significance. The old name referred to "Leonland" and I started it while still in the midst of the prescription drug induced mental illness I was experiencing at the time. I gave myself more importance than I possessed, due in large part to the very bad combination of prescription drugs my psychiatrist at the time prescribed, and partially due to the big ego I possessed for years. I was psychologically in a very bad place that I never again want to visit. Enough of that, I am now seeing a new doctor and have been re-diagnosed and re- prescribed. I now feel really good about things and I am grounded in reality, hence the "ville" in the name of my blog. I now realize that I don't want to be a "big shot" or a "land". I am very happy living the life I have, and I realize that what matters the most is the impact I have on those closest to me, the people I love. If I can just be there for them, let them know I love them and leave a positive lasting impression on them then my job in life has been preformed in a manner I am proud of. A plus would be if I could in some small way be of service for the greater good, but now I am treading in God's realm and if he sees fit to use me in that way then terrific. That is about as much deep thought for a Notre Dame Saturday that I want to do. Sorry I bored you, but those are the breaks when you read a blog posted by a sentimental old man, with something to get off of his chest.
