Well..... I tried, I truly did. I was kind to others, I was polite to the rude, I was generous to the greedy, and I usually added something welcome to the downtown area of San Jose.
For the past few years, I have been a street musician in downtown San Jose. Many have commented that I was a welcome addition.
As of late, I've found it impossible to make a living here. The theives, the beggers, the junkies... they lead a nice life here. Do the right thing, and nothing good will come of it.
The justice system is also a reason for me to leave. Its broken, and I have been laying under the rubble of its shattered mass. It's labeled me as one of the most viel people in society. It's taken money from me. It's caused me grief and anguish. I shall treat it like one would a child that doesn't know how to treat its toys in a correct manner. I shall simply takes it's toy away from it.
Where am I going.... To the northwest.... I have no desire to even be in this state any longer.
I expect to be out of San Jose by monday of next week (6/28/11), and if plans hold true, I won't ever be back here....
I have treated you well San Jose.... Why did you choose to treat me badly ????
