Will a very flawed someone... anyone... be of any use... I'm up this morning as so many mornings wishing I had someone to talk to... I tap on all the doors... ring all the bells... and momentarily I find comfort... I'm now back in counseling... and momentarily I'm comforted... but the truth is... its going to be a long uphill battle... so shall we help one another to push this huge boulder up the hill... we can push on yours for awhile... put a wedge to hold it in place and work on mine for awhile........

I think my answer to your post left much to be desired... It wasn't intentional... I find something interesting, helpful, sometimes in most of what I read... Like I have said... I think the reason I cry a lot of times is I keep praying that someone can fix it... well... that's not going to happen... but it might ease me over till I'm stronger... the same thing for me helping you... you helping me... maybe we can help each other till we're stronger... and if a longer lasting friendship results... that's laignaippe... You may already know the meaning of laignaippe... I'm not even sure I know the spelling... but anyway its a word I picked up here in Louisiana and I like it... it means something extra... Hugs

Hey...I\'m a pretty flawed someone but I will try to help. Let me know the details. I\'ll try to help you sort through it or whatever. My Psychiatrist tells me I should do her work and has joked about us \"trading chairs\" on a few occasions. I guess I\'m great at helping out others but couldn\'t save my own ass if I had too. Kind of funny that way but it seems to ring true. Give me a chance if or when you need a shoulder or a set of ears that have a head & heart attached.

I think, from what I\'ve seen of Louisiana, it must be the birthplace of \"something extra\". Much like friendships that develop in unusual circumstances (or at least uncommon circumstances) and what I like best about the journey friends take is that you can trade off carrying the load and it always seems to get lighter for sharing. I had a tough day today. People can be so thoughtless and unkind........
it never ceases to amaze me. And I\'m still haunted by Molly\'s loss. As if part of me has gone missing with her. I sometimes seem to be waiting, a bit breathlessly, for both of us (Molly and I) to return. I know, in that logical part of my brain I can\'t seem to connect with anymore, that she\'s not coming back. I know that, I really do. I guess I just can\'t figure out how to come back to myself without her. In every way that matters to me........ she was my child and the hope that comes with a child and I\'m utterly at a loss as to how my life will go on from here. I feel lonely in a way I have never experienced.

And wow, I thought I was going to be comforting and helpful and possibly even profound *smile*. But instead............ all you got was this jumbled mess.......... I\'m sorry.
See, you really aren\'t alone in any of the sadness, searching and confusion.
I\'m thinking of you too. J
