If there is doubt in anyone's mind about the validity, truth, viracity or existence of a thing called Karma, doubt no more ... I am living proof.

I am a wretch of a human being. Lying, cheating, and stealing are all behaviors I engage in regularly, not to mention gambling. Up until a week ago I was a regular marijuana user as well.

Before going any further, I would like to qualify my last statements by saying there is no malice intended in any of the aforementioned behaviours. My intentions are not to hurt anybody, only to further advance my selfish pursuit of, so-called, "happiness". In fact, if you asked anybody who knows me they would tell you that I am a generally positive person, who loves his daughter and wife, works hard, has a sense of humour and looks to help others whenever required. But, alas, this is only a testament to my ability to "fake it".

In reality I am a directionless, morally bankrupt relativist who has no clue as to why he was put on this earth. Gambling debts are mounting by the day. I have hit the coldest streak of my life ... chased chaser bets with more chases to the point that my local guy here has been forced to cut me off and place me on a payment plan. In addition to losing the shirt off my back via degenerate gambling, the karmic wheel of life has seen to it that I severly damaged the gas tank of my brand new (2002) motorcyle ... this by a fall off the stand !! The damn thing is not even 1/4 paid for. Although a university, and college graduate (and consequently indebted to the tune of 40 some odd thousand dollars) I work in a dead end menial labour job that requirs I only have a grade 12 equivalence.

I am the biggest loser I know. Chances are if any of you lost any bets recently - it was because I happened to be on the same side - Wake Forest, Texas, Nevada for example. or Utah Jazz -10 against the Wizards the other night, or the Memphis UNDER tonight, or the Duke OVER.

After losing the Texas game (large) I told myself I would coat tail some other selections tonight - GS, Seattle, and the Lakers. As karma would have it - I did not make ANY of those bets !!

If anyone ever required to change their way of living - it is I. I fvcking hate life. And life fvcking hates me. If there is a hell - I am going to it. The sooner the better I say.

I'd love to continue but I am at the previously mentioned dead end job as I type this and must get back to work.

To any who read this, I apologize for taking these past few, irretrievable minutes from your life. This is yet another example of what a selfish, shameless waste of skin I truly am.

It sounds like your problems came when you stopped smoking pot.

start with the simple things - from within - inside out
you aren't as bad as you think -you obviously have a conscience and admit your faults and vices. --That's a huge step
stop gambling and start smoking again and sell your bike

I would guess gambling has led to most of your problems. Everyone can't win at Sports Betting, it's just not for some. The Books will take house and home and your soul given half a chance. I'm 48, having been in "its all over" situations/ventures probably five or six times." I alway came out the other side better, a bit tougher from each experience. My advice - Make a list of the qualities you would like to possess. Then say "wala kazam" and become that person. You can do it, just will you? The longest journey begins with the first step. Just throwing my two cents in. Best of luck.
