Hello there, it’s me again. Well, I’m back to chilling at home. Yes, it’s been a while. Working hours and hours again. Part of the business. I’ve always been pretty lucky to finding long lasting work, because I work for those positions. The slow down has hindered those opportunities. That’s okay. We hammered out our job, beat the schedule because, that’s how we role. My gf, said to us, maybe a group of solid go getters like you guys maybe wasn’t the best idea for this time and material job, but, we made our management look good. As a very close friend of mine explained, that’s my job. To make management, my crew and most importantly, my union look good. In any event, I have been putting out resumes and applications to different businesses and trades. My hopes were humbled and basically a shot in the dark. I got a bite and I’ve started the application process. I’ve recently passed two parts of this new application process. And now I wait for part three. I’m nervous and scared of course I am. It’s new and unknown, what’s going to happen. But I stand tall and will just simply do my best.
Training is hanging around. I’m starting to push the weights around. Da mu shing, is on my mind and I have time again, so I’ll crush some reps. Back to staying in contact with Sifu. He’s my engagement right now, as S.R.K.F. is always on my mind. The time isn’t there, but my thoughts are. Unfortuanatly, the onoway kwoon has shut down. So, my classes are gone. External circumstances and greed played a huge part. That’s okay. I’ll join back with stony plain when finances allow. Right now finances don’t allow much, but, that’s okay. A good lesson in getting back to the basics and doing what important right now.
Lots has transpired in the last few months. I lost my buddy Bane. Had to give him up. He fell backwards really fast. Really fast! Got kinda scary there for a little bit, big god damn dog, with a bad temper that just kinda flared up. I think could I have done things differently? maybe. Could I have done more for him? maybe. I don’t know man. His breed really came out fast and honestly, I poured a lot of time and effort and patience and training and understanding into him. Was this the right home for him? Probably not. But, I couldn’t stand by and let him stay where he was. Locked in a cage all day and all night. Small amounts of freedom. Nope I couldn’t do that. Sometimes my heart is bigger than my brain. That’s okay. We all learnt very valuable lessons about dogs, training and understanding. Bane, I wish you the best buddy. Sorry I didn’t understand what to do with you. Sorry I failed you buddy. Always my puppy. Always my boy. Love you dude. My last words to him before I drove away from that farm.
Anyhow, I managed to face hardships and uncertainties clean and sober. I managed to call and ask for help. Managed to realize, this guy needs help. More importantly, realized most people can not help me. That’s okay. Stick to my roots. Prosperity and growth will come from these lessons in life.
Where am I, what am I doing, and who am I? Well, today I’m here being the best dad/provider I can be. That’s who I am, that what I am, that’s what I do.
Thanks for your time
Mr.Duncan
