I have been reading my magazines all night. Page by page.

As a formerly acutely depressed and unfit individual (and a current alcoholic - don't judge met yet), full of long term neuroses and upcoming unknown mental and emotional dysfunctions (and what will the years bring?), and as a son of two aging parents, one of them seriously ill with the aftermath of stroke (and aging), the other saddled with The Burden of Care, and who has a brother with a year old baby boy and a lovely sister-in-law who will have more sons and daughters to come (I fervently hope), and as a person who is surrounded by geriatic neighbours ................

........... who talk of NOTHING but their illnesses, aches and pains all day and night .......

I have come to an important conclusion.

My work is important. And I love my job. I honestly really love it. It isn't what David E. Kelley would have created, but I'm like a mini Stephen King right now, who really was my first love anyway. In about 5 years, I'll have published more than he has. Nothing like fear therapy, my friends and family. Which other writer do you know gets published every month?

And this job lets me make full use of my mental, emotional and comedic talents.

Look at what some silly person wrote:

Dear Editor

I got my first copy of your magazine (September to October 2008 issue) via the "Take Weight Off, Keep It Off" workshop. Initially, I thought that 30mins is all I need to browse through this magazine (like what I did to most of the magazines). But I took more than 3 hours as I read through almost all the articles. I will be passing this magazine to other family members as I think that they too will benefit from the articles featured. There are lots of tips to better health that I have noted down. Have tried some of them, those featured in "Mind Games", and find them really useful. Great work and effort invested in this magazine. I am definitely looking forward to reading the next issue. Kudos to your team.


Sincere or not... He (or she) is helping me move forward... He (or she) really made my night... And you know, the last 1 week has been one of of my hardest ever in recent memory. One of those tear you down to the bare bones of what you believe and stand for type of weeks.


When was the last time your work helped keep you going .... and helped support what you're doing in your personal life.

I have quit more jobs than I can remember. Most of them were because I simply didn't give a shit about them. Fuck them, then leave them. But this one really resonates.

I'm befuckled. This is great. It is still very hard, lets not forget... I'm trying to become (or at least sound like) a credible expert in one field of medicine with just 3 days devoted to what you're covering - every month... and there can be very many specialties to cover.

And to think that in 2004, I abandoned my dreams to inspire and entertain people via TV and film, because the dreams were unsustainable. So much for drama in English.


What's really driving me today though is ...


.... Nobody in my family is going to an old folks home. Ever.


Not under my bloody fucking watch.

Or you don't know me.


Damn it, trash talking is so much fun!

Not to mention, therapeutic.

I highly recommend it.

Even if there's no one to actually respond to it but yourself.


But who else is it intended to motivate?
