There was a time when I could have been considered a loving father, a faithful spouse, a diligent employee, and an active member of the community. Alas, all that changed when I was rudely confronted with the reality of mental health. Trauma defined my life choices and equally destroyed any proper social response, leaving me with a grab bag of things that I refer to artistically as Wrecks Ricardus.

Today, life could not possibly get any better. Every day seems better than the last and I am still willing to hang around, just in case I am wrong. Sometimes as I muddle along I find myself dazzled by the beauty of it all.

King Richard translated to Latin is Rex Ricardus, a tainted nobleman living an incarcerated existence with unreasonable expectations. Well then, when I broke out into the freedom of joy in the moment, I wrecked any possibility of royal urgings. So artistically I will just continue being happy as Wrecks Ricardus. Scribbling a thought or two just for the beauty of it all.
