Life of a Bankrupt - Stories of a self made struggle.

I'm Tabone, a 28 year old uni student, who has fucked up one to many times. High school drop out, turned bankrupt at 25, I have ignored every rule in this long fucked up book called "the key to success." But my story is my story and its a story i plan on telling, to prove to people (and my self) that mistakes are what shapes us to be better versions of fucked up 20 year old tabone.

I left high school at 16, after witnessing what I can only say was a non-traumatic event (my psych would STRONGLY disagree), I saw a man get executed with a pistol held to the back of his head. This is what I would call my "defining moment" in my life. It led to a long road of substance abuse, gambling, bad decisions and then to a breakdown that almost took my life at 25.

This is what I call the "turning point" in my life.

Reassessing life, I decided to do what I never thought I had the brains to do, go to university, get a degree and hopefully one day become a doctor. That's where life started for me, the moments before that were like watching an old VHS tape on a shitty black and white TV, you know whats happening, but at the end of it its so blurry you dont really care how the ending happened.

People I have met through out my life have always said I need to write a book. So I am here now, turning my life journey, my poems and my photographs, into a piece of writing that I can look back on later in life, this isn't for the "people" or for anyone else except my self, its a way for me to communicate with my self, a journal of some sorts.

So if you read this, and you like it, I hope to read it in the comments, if you want to read more, check my other posts.
