It do...Remember that you are blogging for yourself. It does not matter if not a soul responded ever again. Plus, if you get a tracker, you'll see that people come all the time and for some reason like to read all about you, but won't comment. That's just a truth, and I say, blog anyway.<BR/>Me too on that 'pushed friends away, am living mostly with myself.' I sometimes wonder if its a bad thing, but I think I am working thru issues and maybe friends will happen again for me, someday. I was never a person with 20 friends who wanted to look good having that, I was lucky if I had one and I would hold on like a cowboy on a steer in a 7-second rodeo.<BR/>Your post is lovely and I liked your poem too. I can understand about the chains and the impatience to be free. My chains are different, but the thing is its clearly not about what the chains are made of but the choice to fight against them in the first place.<BR/>May I say, that some people give into their chains, they don't muster the courage or bravery to fight. Worse yet, are the ones that not only don't try to bust their own chains but have the gall to want to enslave another. You have sooo much going for you. And yes, you've got to keep it for yourself, don't give it away. Fight to push those mean enslavers away. I know you do all those things and you are such a great person all over. I know it for fact.<BR/>You have a wonderful day!<BR/>Yours,<BR/>the Tart'Tarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14649798961801869778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4479548328227905152.post-12553548878907356502007-08-10T12:38:00.000-04:002007-08-10T12:38:00.000-04:00Hey...stay strong with that thing we talked about ...Hey...stay strong with that thing we talked about the other day. My thoughts on the issue...I agree with Raine, the ones that are still here just may be the ones worth keeping. The ones that don't make demands on you or your time. The ones that don't belittle your experiences, either at the time you reveal them or later, when angry. The ones that applaud your successes and help you through your hard times. Those are the ones worth keeping. We may not be around all the time, but we are still here and you can email or im.Medicoglia, RNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01894674563874832457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4479548328227905152.post-41613202142010319112007-08-09T06:17:00.000-04:002007-08-09T06:17:00.000-04:00Hi Dear Mysti!First I want to say - Amen - to all ...Hi Dear Mysti!<BR/>First I want to say - Amen - to all comments.
