new subject!
Ok, let’s lighten things up a bit, shall we? Have a look at this!
Aww! So cute! This will also lift your spirits:
Aren’t rainbows beautiful? And here, have a little of this:
Yummy! Oooh, have a little of this:
That’s what I’m talking about, baby. There! Aren’t we all feeling much better now?
Seriously though, posting those poems was an intensely healing experience, and I thank you for humoring me. Knowing that I have this place to process all my junk is a great comfort. I am so grateful for all of you wonderful people who care enough to read all the crap I spew out. Thank you all.
Just wanted you to know that I read your poems, they were just so personal I didn’t know what to say. They illustrated everything you said in your Issues post.
It is theraputic to get it out for all of blogdom to see. I felt so much relief after pressing send on one of my posts. I no longer had to hide my secret. I let it go and it isn’t part of me anymore.

I don’t mind what you so eloquently call “the crap that you spew out” because it’s real, and it’s you, and we love you, so we welcome it. I loved reading your poems. I just felt sadness that you went through more in a few years than most would go through in a lifetime. But as you have yourself intimated, all of it is what makes you YOU.

Who IS that??? Isn’t it a little inappropriate to have a chunky hunk next to a lil pic of Christ?
