Before going any further, everyone check out Eric Genuis. He's a brilliant composer. Even if you don't like religious messages, his instrumental compositions are some of the most beautiful I've ever heard, and I don't think he'll leave my top 5 for quite some time.

I have been thinking a lot about my life. I am truly blessed, not because God gave me good gifts and abilities, but because of the people he has put into my life. I constantly feel as though the gamepiece that is David is moved by both light and dark hands, but my friends and family, each in their way and to the limits of their ability, help me through, help me to find myself. I am not an easy person to put up with, nor to understand. I have no easy to read signs that say when I want help and when I want solitude. I have moods when I'm a great friend in return, and other moods when I see nothing and no one but things imagined and dreamed. And each step of the way, it is the people I influence and the people that influence me that help me on the path that will define me, that is defining me, more than all the thoughts and dreams and daily activities that make up my life. And so, to all the positive and negative influences (people) in my life, I thank you for helping me along the path you think I should be walking, in the midst of which, I am on the path that I am walking.

If you need anything, ask, and if necessary, ask again. Asking is the hardest thing anyone can ever do, and I do it far less frequently than I should, and probably mistake a friend in need for a friend that doesn't want help far too often as well. I would be a gentleman before a friend, a friend before a love, and anything within my power I would grant whom would value and use it. My words are through for now.
