We all have our burdens to bear...some have much lighter loads than others. These burdens are the fuel for our writing. An outlet for those burdens and fears...I have no idea how I would have survived much of what I have gone through if not for blogit. Sending positive white energy your way...

Yes I know Joe having done a similar journey through life. I also know how awful it is for you to have to follow the path of your dear mother. There is nothing to describe that torment. I do wish you could get some pills for the depression and don't be too proud to get help if things get too tough. I do enjoy reading your work even if it is sad as you have the ability to express the feelings that many cannot explain in words. Sadly with all families, perhaps it is a survival feature , but they always look on rather dispassionately when a more compassionate member of the siblings takes the responsibility of a parent or parents.

I certainly hope that you will keep writing, and "in all your glory" without diminishing a thing. We need that, as do you. You are a wonderful prize at Blogit to show us that life is more than fairies and flowers, food and fun. There is also fear--fear that someone else will eventually have to do the things for us that we have done for someone else. Some of the responses that you get show that fear that you spark in those who read you. That is not a bad thing. They fight against it with their words, but it remains hidden in their hearts.
