Selfish Old man... Mood
Friday, September 25, 2009

This moanin.... it's difficult... the pain is relentless.. and I'm whinin...

i shuffle thru all the huggs.. and best wishes... and  I realise... how

Selfish I really am...

I come online to DS....I  use to go thru my friend list... readin the jounals...

sometimes it would take couple days...but I managed to read and say hey how you.... hope thing get better...

the list gets longer... the computer gets slower.... site is going thru some changes... better too  mind ya...

then slowly I cut down on my readin of the journals...i find myself wanting to get outside in the sunshine away from the computer... away from the tv... and video games...

I want to feel the sun on my face... the wind in my hair...swatt some skitters...mow some grass....

yepp it's summer... and I tend to indulge in me time....

then the weather changes... summer is ending... life is more demandin...

Pain is relentless... I'm here lookin for the support I've been so Little in givin...

But here I is... help me...I know ...

That all my wonderful friends here on DS.... are havin some ruff times too...

and I've failed to tell you all how wonderful it is to have a place to turn to in my needy times... seems like a lot lately.. Fall is in the air...

yeah feels like it fell on me somtimes....

So any who...I'm sorry I've been so selfish... so needy...

I'm  only gonna say... I'm so glad my friends here on DS....have overlooked my short comings... and always lend me the support I need to carry thru....

Thank you ....Thank You....

I wish everyone many Blessing...

thank you all for sharing and caring...

i am truly blessed ... by you all... Russ

    We are blessed with having you and your friendship too Russ.It's people like you and so many others who are truely a blessing in life.Some days life hands me a full plate and I say no more DS it's too time consuming.But than I think about about the people out there in cyber space.All are real people with real hearts and some truely do genuinely care.
    The kind hearted people is what keeps me pressing forward,and all of the encouragement means so much when some days I have such little will.I can see that you know what I mean and that you feel it too.I thank god for the precious few that stand out in DS.For that precious few makes a day worth while and worth living.We relate to your pain and family issues just like DS does with mine.It's a nice place to come to and lay our hearts out and actualy get some understanding whan we can't find it among our own family's..
    We all have our whine days my buddy we are only human,but I know where you are coming from and I say it's okay i'am just happy to have your friend.
    Big Hugs Rachel

    Sorry you are feeling so bad, I dred what this colder weather brings, although the hot weather brings bad things too lol but I think it is great that you been getting out no shame in that and you should not feel bad one bit!! Besides we all go through times of not getting around to everyones journals, heck most people think I done left I think. You still have given us plenty so no need to be feeling any less!! I always enjoy your journals when I do come on here. As you can see we will always be here for you as I feel lucky and blessed to have you as a friend!! 8) I wish you all the best!!!! You take care of yourself....((((hugs)))
