Living in San Francisco or any Big City while having a crisis in ones life can show you which friends are reliable and which are not.
I just want to make sure all those friends that have stood by me during this time in a positive fashion know how proud and honored I am to have them as friends. You guys know who you are and again thanks for being there!! Words can not express the gratitude I have that you are in my life! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!
To those that haven't called or reached out: Thanks for making your feelings clear! I'm not even going to name names. BUT some of you bitches have been friends of mine for years! I mean come on girls!! You can't even call me back!!! So not cute!! I guess we aren't friends anymore!
Someone recently said to me "Just because you were friends with someone for many years doesn't mean you will continue to be friends with them in future years."
And I think I sadly agree with him.

ONE LESS CRAZY HOMO I CHOOSE NOT TO DEAL WITH:GLN
So I read something crazy yet very very funny on a social/sex website today.
THE TEXT FROM MY CRAZY SOON TO BE EX's PROFILE!!
His ramblings proves 2 me that ending all contact FOREVER MORE is the ONLY choice fate could have picked for me!!!
He is truly a coo coo for coco puffs FAGGOT!!
So without further delay..
Here are his impossible notions and a peek into a crazy, fucked and lost soul.
*************************
I've met a great guy to co-create a home & family-life!
Each a stronger man at times, we were equally comfy in jeans, a tux or naked having built a life to truly love - We married.
Hasty emotional choices began a chain of events -
I barely comprehend even in Hindsight!
Can we understand both sides, forgive fears & blunders, be willing to learn & grow stronger?
At home & online, I welcome friend's advice so I may become a better friend.
(Yes, I'd love a Miracle!)
The willingness to forgive, make choices & changes to be friends
Live together again...? I do not know.
SF is our home - It's a small town.
****************
WHAT A JOKE!!!
GEOFFREY L NEWMAN:

Einstein's Buddhist Thinking
Although Albert Einstein was certainly not a Buddhist, these statements sound much like it:
"A human being is part of a whole, called by us the 'universe', a part limited in time and space.
He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separate from the rest
- a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness.
This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affectation for a few people near us.
Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion
to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty."
"Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one."
-A. Einstein

Two Short Months
by damon Burns
Two short months later and I've found my voice.
And my walk has a bounce because my feet walk free.
Away from pain, where there's no gain. Free from past, truly a New Man.
Two short months later My path is sure because I am pure.
Who needs to land on there feet? I'm already steady and ready.
Fast and Furious the hits may come but you'll never find me quaking underneath your drum.
My Music rings across the heavens and this sounds shall never be put down.
To think thus makes you a clown.

Buddhist Thought For The Week
All know the Way, but few actually walk it.
If you don't find a teacher soon, you'll live this life in vain. It's true, you have the buddha-nature. But without the help of a teacher
you'll never know it. Only one person in a million becomes enlightened without a teacher's help.
If, though, by the conjunction of conditions, someone understands what the Buddha meant, that person doesn't need a teacher. Such a person has a natural awareness superior to anything taught. But unless you're so blessed, study hard, and by means of instruction you'll understand.
-Bodhidharma

Buddhist Thought For The Week
These teachings are like a raft, to be abandoned once you have crossed the flood. Since you should abandon even good states of mind generated by these teachings, How much more so should you abandon bad states of mind! Conquer the angry man by love. Conquer the ill-natured man by goodness. Conquer the miser with generosity. Conquer the liar with truth. -The Dhammapada

SupermaN!!
The last few days found me feeling great, happy and free!
I've had a chance to hangout with my great friends and through spending time with them I've rediscovered love, peace, friendship, trust, honesty and what it means to be treated with respect and kindness.
Earlier this week I made some strong strides toward getting gainfully employed. Starting next week I'll be taking a 4 day class which should further those strides and then I shall have to take a test to prove I can do what the job requires. Soon I'll be back to Money Making Damon. Not that I've been not making coins these last weeks. Because that wouldn't be the truth. The money has rolled in. Taking care of myself and my dog is going so much better than anyone could have predicted and I've managed to land on my feet. This is always the way it has been.
There is some amazing music that has come across me recently. I have been getting some hot sound shit these days and whoever gets a mixed cd from me will be able to tell where my head is at!! My favorite track at the moment is "Be By Myself." It's hotter than a stolen car and represents everything I stand for right now.
My dog Music and I have rediscovered a bond that grows stronger each day. She goes everywhere I go and she looks better, seems happier and is so affectionate towards me that it makes me want to cry just writing about it.
The last year and a half since I knew my ex (who I shall never mention by name again in this blog) I found myself holding back. Or was I being held back. LOL. Who knows? But I do not care. I feel free and this is an exciting new time in my life.
Last night as I was walking to my friend Steve's house from Muni and I even saw my ex. I know I looked good. My body is changing because I've been taking care myself . He walked right in front of me and it didn't even bother me to see him. He's ugly and I didn't even realize it was him until I was past him. God, did I have crack glasses on when we were together? His cheeks looked hollow and he was dressed so out of style that I had to laugh when I realized who it was.
Last night on my way back to the place that is Me and Music temporary home someone from a window above me was whistling the theme song from the Superman movies. With all I've been put through this song represents how I'm feeling about myself. I must be a Superman. Surviving and thriving during the darkest of times is my personal motto these days. And that makes me a Superman!!
