being back makes me cry
Permalink  

I like I said have recently returned to MIP but it feels like I never left. I feel so much support out there. It is refreshing to know that you are all still out there. I noticed some familiar names too. You are all gems! I miss the closeness I felt on here. I can't believe sometimes how much I have been missed but you all get me. I am so grateful that I have a place to go to share my ups & downs. And yes, I do like to make song references. He goes one: Wake me up when it's all over, when I'm wiser & I am older. I was trying to find myself but didn't know I was lost. I am so grateful for music that soothes my soul. Anyone else out there who has special songs that inspire them? Share them w/ me. I am open to to a lot these days; after what I have been through, I can see how much I need to get it together & recover. I am still frightened of things, but I have a good chance of survival but don't we all? Here I sit w/ hope unlike I had before I experienced my break. Recovery is slow sometimes.

Bless all of you! I have found you & myself along this journey. I won't let time go by as much as I am able.

I won't cry...I will feel at peace.

HOOT

Hi Hoot
I don't know if you know me but I have just recently learnt to drive at the ripe old age of 38. I was too afraid before.
Today I was out driving to a nearby town to deliver a job-application and this song came on the radio. I had to turn it up and sing my heart out

It's good to see you again.

Kathleen!

Just yesterday I saw some old posts and you were on them and I thought, "Where's HootNanny?"

And today you posted. Great to see you back. If feels right.

Bob Seger's Still the Same has nothing to do with anything. But I'll get husband to make a loop of it and I play it over and over and over when I'm really troubled. That and Hawaiian Slack Key music--something in the guitar tuned to those tunings is so healing for me.

Hugs,
Temple
