    This is me

    hello my friend. wow, so brave to share one's story. i've never done it. well if i did it would be awfully shocking. so wait for the book and you know journaling and writing for you is a good thing. you have much to share even unto yourself and much to reveal even unto yourself. mainly, you have much to revel in that you are such a beautiful soul that made it through such challanges. overcoming much and really a fault of us is to deal with it the booze deadened the pain. but i can see you are ready for a new challange in life called i come first and i am worth it.
    i have been writing about lonliness darling and i thought i'd share just a bit of what i've written before i run off and catch a plane. maybe you will find some comfort. i find loneliness to be a culprit for many a person.
    LONELINESS


    so, today I vow to do this. When I feel the silent call of loneliness beckon me:
    I will be lonely. I will learn my way through and inside of loneliness. I shall learn to call her my friend. Maybe I can make a map and a game board of loneliness with little game pieces (maybe at times I’ll be a horse, or a dog, or a child or a barbi, or a house like in monopoly) that i can use to hold my place along my journey.

    And when I roll the dice, I shall chart my path. If I land upon a crossroad, I can call a card and experience that mystery with adventure, and I shall say slight trepidation. Instead of backing away and hiding or finding a new addiction, I can simply embrace loneliness. So,

    let me again say to myself: sit with your loneliness, (eat, pray, love-- elizabeth)
    learn your way around this new found territory
    explore the globe and
    make a map of it.
    welcome to the human experience.
    but never again use another person’s body or emotions as a scratching post for your own
    unfulfilled yearnings.
    so i read this book eat, pray and love. she wrote a bit on lonely and i'm well stretching that out........ so maybe this helps
    :welcome:

      Dexter,
      I still talk to her. She is an amazing woman, she just shouldn't have had kids which she use to tell us occasionally.............There is no doubt in my mind that she loved us and would have killed anyone who would have tried to take us away, but she was not nurturing, or ready for us at such a young age............I hardly know her. I see her every 2-3 years ove the last 30. She doesn;t know my son..........its sad. When I go home and see her a hug a stranger
