Rest in peace Chris.

For the first time in a long time I struggled this past week. I couldn’t sleep. I had no energy.

For the last few days I’ve been thinking about taking my bipolar/antidepressant meds again, if anything just to get some solid sleep, but last night some friends let me know that our high school mate Chris passed away, and well, there it was.

On hearing this news I felt the need to find relief so I recorded this video last night. As cathartic as my Monday Morning Rants are for me I still found the need to call a friend before bed last night (you know who you are, thank you).

I get to know Willy Lizar, my designated Signature Sound writing buddy.

Turns out we have a lot in common; a love of The Matrix, the UFC, an Indonesian Chinese background, addictive personalities and a shared loss of loved ones.

We have an open discussion about drugs, hitting rock bottom, death, and overcoming the fear of death. Heavy stuff, but only if you choose to look at it that way!
