We are not alone Mood
Thursday, July 2, 2009 | A General Update story

Why is there such comfort in being among others who are in the same painful, depressing, sleepless, fatigued boat?  Does misery really love company? 

 

I think that knowing we are not suffering alone, and that we are not "crazy" or hypochondiacs is such an important affirmation.  When so many of us are isolating, being a part of a community, even a cyber-space community is liberating, and just plain feels good.

 

Today is better than yesterday.  I am happy about connecting with someone, and I hope that I have made a friend who I can support with compassion and empathy.  I like it here.
