You left me speechless because in your words I found exactly how I’ve felt since losing my mother, my best friend to cancer while at the same time going through the most difficult times I can imagine in my marriage..walking the cliffs edge trying to hold it all together terrified that any minute that one strong gust of wind could come and take you over and you might never recover..absolutely beautiful!!!! You are a gift! Keep moving forward and feeling what you need to feel…its all okay and its all exactly where you need to be.

I read this the other day on my iphone and having been meaning to get back to post. I love reading your words. They inspire me, make me cry, make me laugh, stirring up all kind of emotions. I just keep reading but do not always say much but I wanted you to know that I do read and I love your blog, your words are so beautiful. Now go write a book already! =]

oh, wow. if i knew where, i’d send you some chocolate. that’s my lifeline, and the one thing i could share with some of my sliding elders. i fantasized about breaking plates (we’re talking 5 females here, so there were ample supplies), but knew i wouldn’t have time or energy or assistance cleaning up the mess.

how you can describe your feelings so perfectly is beyond me! So sorry for this storm that’s been passing over your life the last few years mere – it’s pretty incredible. This post brought me to tears. I would collapse under all of it. You are so very strong. My love to you this holiday season and a wish for nothing but sunny days once this hurricane diminishes.
