Thank you for sharing my burden
Permalink  

Hello everyone.  I posted my first post (Please Help!) 2 days ago and the replies I received brought tears to me eyes.  It felt so good to know that finally after over 2 years of trying to handle this on my own I had found a place where people understood what I was going through and were there to help and listen.  It is a terrible boat to be in, but just knowing that I am not in it alone makes it easier.  Thank you all so much for your support.  I will keep coming here and I hope that someday I will be able to give someone else words of comfort and wisdom.  To all the other new members out there, I hope that you have felt the same sense of comfort that I do.  We can get through this together.

I'll never forget one of the responses I got to my first post here. It was, simply....

...welcome home.


Take care of you...

C123, I am glad you found us.  All of us are in this same crowded boat, but fortunately it is unsinkable!  Each adds his/her own courage, understanding, and love, making the whole a cohesive bond much like that of close family.  Come back often.  Your spirit will be renewed again and again.

Best wishes in 2008.

Diva
