Programming In Perl

Been trying my hand lately in programming in Perl. Doing some database things with it. It’s quite an interesting language. I’m rather enjoying it, if I’m being honest. Coming from a Java background, I find it exciting to learn new things and take them as they come to me. It’s fun for sure!

Where Do I Go From Here?

 Ever come across a day where you don't feel good mentally? Emotionally you feel down and you wish you just had a day to figure out what these feelings are? Yeah, that tends to happen a lot for me. I never know what is going on in my own life it feels like. Am I up? Am I down? Depressed? Not depressed? It's all a big roller coaster for me. I'm not sure exactly how to make it all stop to be honest. It would be nice to be able to just give myself a break. But I don't know how to do that.

Where do I go from here? That's the main question I want answered. If I am but a babbling person with no idea of what's going on, then so be it.

I've been diagnosed with different things over the years, some of those diagnoses have changed. Some have stayed the same. The ones that have stayed the same, I seem to be able to have a hold on, for now. The ones that have changed into something else? Yeah, that's a different story.

I'm not quite certain where I belong in all of this. Am I still considered to be human? Do you see what I am up against? I don't see it most days. Other days it's clear as mud. I know I'm human, what else would I be? Exactly.

It would be nice to be able to wake up one morning and just feel normal. If normal is an actual thing one can feel. If it's not? Then I don't want to know what normal is. I know what's normal for me. That's mostly freaking out over nothing. But what is actual normality? That I do not know. I have only known what it is I currently feel.

I suppose that's what dreams are made of. Once you dream, you can only decide from there what the dream means and if it's going to affect you the rest of your life. To me, the dream never ends. It constantly goes and I am stuck wishing and hoping for something better to happen to me. I am happy to a degree but also lost to a degree. What am I to do with my life? I have a career and everything that keeps me stable and above water, but what more is there?

I'm afraid that someday I will wake up and all of this will have been a dream. My everything will be gone, and I won't have a way to get it all back. What does that say about me or my mindset? It's an interesting thought, no? Yeah, that's what I thought.

So, I do what most people do, I sip on my Diet Coke and wait to see how all of this is played out. Was it a simulation to begin with? Was it something real? I just don't know.

Didn't Sleep

 What's the point of sleep anymore if I can't sleep? I don't think I slept any good last night. I was awake at 3 am wondering to myself, what on earth am I doing awake? Yeah, that happened. It doesn't make any sense. Fortunately, it's the weekend. So, I can catch up on sleep tonight. I don't have to be anywhere tomorrow, so it's a good opportunity to actually sleep for once. Whatever the case, I hope I'll be able to fall asleep and stay asleep. We will see what happens.

What's The Point?

 So, tell me, what is the point of believing in a spiritual supreme being? I often wonder what that is all about. I know religions say that God, as some call him, is our father. We pray by starting with our father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Yet sometimes it feels like he is absent from our lives. Is it due to how we are living our lives? What exactly is the cause of that feeling? Some people believe that God, Jesus, and the Holy Ghost are one person. Others do not. It is interesting to me to see what all churches believe in. I myself do not go to church. I don't believe in organized religion. I have my bible on my phone, so it's me and my bible. That is my link to God. It makes me wonder if that's enough though. I have faith in Christ, I believe in him. Is my faith sufficient to be forgiven of my sins? I do not know. I do know that wherever I end up in the afterlife, I will have done my best to follow Christ. I believe the scriptures which lay out Christ's...

Depression

 Depression is not something to be taken lightly. Having Major Depressive Disorder, I can only hope for a better future. I get it a lot of people wish to have a better future. There's nothing wrong with that. I don't think. Why not wish for a better life? If wishing works, let it work. Personally I wish the voices would leave me, but it's not as simple as that. They run amok from time to time. My only hope is that they'll get a clue. Yeah it's crazy at times that's for sure. If I could, I'd wish them upon no one else.
