So this might be too much information but at this point I really don’t care...

But after hearing about today’s news, the passing of Anthony Bourdain... I was just hit very hard with a flood of emotions. 

My mental health hasn’t been that great for a handful of years now. And for those years that it was really bad, watching Anthony Bourdain’s Parts Unknown, The Layover, No Reservations got me through. Made me realize there was more to this life then this bubble I live in, that there was some kind of beauty from the grittiest things. He inspired me to live life as unapologetically me as possible.... that not everyone’s going to like you or agree with you for their own reasons... and that was fine...that was okay. Learn from it and move on to next big adventure... of life and self discovery.

I forgot about this, I forgot about it. And it pains me, PAINS ME, to realize that with his passing, I remembered these feelings and thoughts he instilled in me. 

So I’m going to remember him today, through these tears, and all the days forth. Remember the glimmer of hope I felt when I was watching him in my dark room with just the light of my laptop to illuminate the space.
