OK. first off, I have some crazy disability going on... Probably Guillione Barre Syndrome... And it wrecked my life as a wood floor guy. Can hardly walk let alone use machinery. I developed the symptoms in Dec 2019 and my last bit of work was March 2020 where I struggled through my biggest project ever which was 10 500sqft units installed and finished in three week window. LOL I was wrecked even if I was healthy. Anyway, I have been struggling with what I will do with myself. Although I'm quite bright, I'm a loser on paper. Like serious nobody. So I have been having suicidal ideation and embracing a nihilist attitude but I dream of a solution that would be something I would love to do.
Let me fill in another detail to the story....
My good friend and neighbor had an accident the week before Christmas and is fucking paralyzed. I love the dude and it hurts so much. So I was trying to figure out some way to help him.
Now back to the story...
I have been tooting my horn about how awesome I play and I was thinking about making videos of me playing with my cool playlist in the background while my other Neighbor, who is a killer musician on the guitar and a fellow conspiracy nut like me, talks with me about current events. I envision a fun poker/current events/cool music video experience. I am very fun to watch play when it goes well LOL. My neighbor comes over every night to watch and drink some brews and we laugh and talk the shit.
That's when it hit me that I could help my paralyzed friend by making him the star of the show. The whole venture will be about helping disabled people and my friend specifically.
So I've been thinking about it intensly and syaing LOL what a pipe dream
now the God part
So, I'm playing a tourney and I've had good luck. I have 3 times the starting chips and Imagining if this was a video people could watch to learn how to play well and I start to think about my friend and how He'll be the star of the show and I'm suddenly hit with a big bet (other guy was all in and I called it)with 2/8 suited spades and I have an irresitable urge to call it.
The flop comes 222 and I'm stunned
Now the good part.
I'm still more preoccupied with my friend and the plans to create the show so I am just checking the bets and I find myself in the very next hand with a hand so crazy it was almost a straight flush draw
Not kidding flop 3 4 5 clubs on the flop turn is a 7 and river 3
I had 77 with a club
I suddenly realized God was getting my attention and wanted me to do this thing I imagine
So I cried out that I believed him and meant it with every fiber
And I realized in that moment that God and I are one
And I had the very next hand comes to me with 22
I said to God to give me quad dueces to prove it one more time and the flop came with a single 2.
Then I felt God chuckle in me and he gave me the full house on the river
Every one of these hands I checked and didn't bet at all and let everyone see it.
Then God told me to call every bet and give the chips away and it's what I did
I know this sounds insane and made up and I don't care if you scoff. I am shaken to my core and I was seriously crying when this was happening and I realized God was speaking to me.
And so I had to document this moment so I will always remember that we are all one in this universe
And I have absolute faith that I will make this crazy idea work so my buddy can feel alive and hopefiully we can make some money to fund his care
