We love you, iSiSeyeS, and care about you very much.
We are here for you whenever you need us. Life brings us all many challenges. Some are harder than others and some give us the feeling of hopelessness. It is always easier said than done, but we DO eventually get through the crap and ALWAYS grow from the experience. That's how life works and we may not feel it is fair (and most of the time it
is not fair) but what other choice do we have? Survival. Gaining wisdom. Learning. Growing. Most importantly, gaining and realizing the strength we used to pull ourself through it all. The old saying, "What doesn't kill us makes us stronger" cannot be further from the truth. Hang in there and know you're not alone and we're listening.

Dave-C, consider it done.
It's already in progress and I have nothing to do with that part!

Hello All,
You guys are the sweetest in the entire world. Sometimes I forget how blessed I truly am.
It took so long for me to realize that I do not deserve what's happening to me. I think deep down I felt unworthy of happiness or love.
My life is like raging river nowadays. I've pretty much hit rock bottom these last few weeks. Now I just have to hold my breath and get kicking. I've been doing this, but sometimes an undertow grabs me and pulls me back a ways.
I can't expect help, either. But the few times I have received it I have been so immensely grateful. The tricky part is figuring out how to repay kindness, when you have very little to give back.
How do I get so pensive in these comments sections? Okay, what I really wanted to say was: Thank you for your kindness. You guys rock! :)

Thank you, Jems...and I wish the same for Pecan...
Me, you, and msaries WILL eventually meet in person (and hopefully maybe a few more of our closest friends that we met through Blogitville) and put the words and voices (and pics) to a great reality. It's imazing how certain souls are just meant to become a part of each others' lives no matter what means of original connection. Thank you for your words and I know Britt will always be with me in spirit.

I have two, too!
I wish my PecanSis to find her one true love--the one who will love and cherish her--who will be there for her when she needs someone to be there--who will know when she needs some alone time. I want Pecan to be forever in a happy relationship with no heartbreak--in other words, someone who will give her all the love that she has in her heart to give back.
And I wish for you, my SpitFire sister, to have your heart heal now and when Britt does need to move on. I wish for you to rest in the comfort that she will always be with you in spirit and will never let anyone hurt you, for you and she have cared for each other for years past, and she knows that once you are with her again, you will continue to care for her. In the meantime, she will care for you, watch over you, and do her best to help heal your wounds--both emotional and physical.
And a selfish wish--I wanna meet my PecanSis and SpitFire sis and msaries and Abuelita...and well, everyone else here who has been here for me--even if only as words on a screen. (Pecan, SFire, and msaries, however, I actually have voices to put to the words on the screen! Yay! That's a step in the right direction!)

TG, I too wish Isiseyes's life to improve for her.
I think about her all the time knowing she doesn't deserve that crap.

there are too many -- perhaps I would wish YOU would stop asking these damn hard questions!
okay my first thought was of my friend Isiseyes -- I wish she were to get more of here writing published and find a way to pay her bills from her writing, not her dancing. She's going through so much right now, leaving her no-good, cheating, immature, coulda-been-court-martialed-for-his-affairs husband and taking care of three boys, that I wish money would fall from the sky for her, without her having to let some drunk put it inside her thong. Someday she'll get to tell her story -- and those nights of dancing will surely be a well for her to use -- but the extra money now would give her the time to tell it. tg

Oh, Pecan!! Now ya got me all teary eyed!!
I do wish for Jems the same thing. I wish it for everyone that suffers with depression especially. It sucks! As far as me talking to animals, well, I wish I literally could, but I do to a certain extent. Sometimes after a dog has been through surgery or extensive treatment, I'll go sit with them in their cage or run after I close the hospital and everyone is gone and talk to them and comfort them. I think it really helps them to heal; knowing they're cared about and loved when their family can't be with them.

I have two..may I have two?
I would wish for Jemmie, a lifelong cure for her depression and insomnia.
I would wish for Spitfire, the ability to actually be able to talk to animals, to hear their voices, to understand their words. I think that would enrich her world and the world of animals everywhere.
