[hometext] => This isn't a poem, but it had to be said, and my family never has listenened to me less I make a fool of myself
[bodytext] => I hate to have to do things like this where everyone can read them, but it's time for MY voice to be heard. Last Night, my grandmother decied that vomit on the carpet from an illness, a broken phone jack from tripping over a phone cord, and a little over $7 in long distance phone calls to the person I love, is grounds to kick me out. Personally, I'm sick of suffering for my causes while everyone else has there way, and expects me to pucker up and kiss @$$, sorry, but the one lesson I learned from my father that I believe in, is there is nothing worth kissing @$$ for. As far the money goes, paying for the aforemented accidents, would be taken care of, but in lieu of payment, this is what I get. This last year in this "family" has been horriable, I've often times found myself wishing I could just pack everything up and leave it all behind, being forced to move now for the 2nd time, within a 4 month period...and as far as my grandmother goes, I did the only thing she asked me to do...nothing, not saying she had to ask for my assistance, but when you have no idea what needs to be done, a finger pointing in a direction besides the highway could be of some help.
And as far as the criticism of Amy and I's relationship is concerned, you take your opinions on what you've assumed is the truth and stick them..and I think you already know where, look at the things Amy has bought for me, with the money she got for graduation presents no less..if that isn't a sign of real love, I don't what is, and I think the fact that I've spent alot on just being able to call her at night and assure that she gets her sleep should tell you what I feel in that department as well, and it's far from pity from the tragic events of her life, while I know there's some issues still haunting, I stand firm in my belief there's no other like the one I love, and I think the engagement ring, and wedding band I have stashed away, should say it even more, about where I see the two of us going, and unlike my parents, failure won't be an option, I'm aiming for the stars, Amy is the biggest proof I've ever had of the phrase "anything is possiable" and with her at my side, I can conquer any and everything...including a 550 mile trip by foot should I have too. Jason Ganey, has never been about the things that this town worships..I've been me, and if you don't like as I am, well tough luck, cause I'm not changeing for anyone, I like who I am now, more so than that person you used to see sitting in the corner, without a smile, with no life in him, just sitting alone, this is who I am, and I'm proud to see myself when I see my refecltion in the morning, something I couldn't say even in Novemember of 2001. And just to lay it to a final conclusion, the reason I don't have a local girlfriend, I grew tired of the insolent games of bedhopping, and diease spreading the people of this town do, in fact, only one thing keeps me here, Amy's mother, and I have a hunch that she won't be an issue much longer. I feel as if I've proven enough to you people though, so now it's time for you to prove something too, that you really do care.

Jase...this is so sad to read..I'm sorry so much is taking place in your life right now...when all you should be feeling is happiness.. You have gone thru so much pain and suffereing already and it's time you find some joy in your life. I know you found it in Amy... I do hope things work themselves out in the new year...

Jason... like Jenni, I am also sad to read this... Just remember that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger and if anyone is strong, I know you are! Follow your heart, it'll take you on the right path. Good Luck and all the best in the new year :)

Dearest Jase @-<<-
I have watched & known you from the first and am so sorry to see your pain, try to remember that you both have many friends here and love is an energy which exists of itself; It is its own value; Love is not weakness; It is strong.. these people who are preventing you from being together should not take your kindness for weakness, my best to you both, always my friend:)
always Nessa
