“You’re not the only person who has had bad things happen to them you know?”

    I heard this sort of thing before ‘the hall’ but not afterwards. The shock of my being hospitalised for 9 months cured her of that. Thankfully.

    keep positive… in the mist of all the hurt and negativity there must be a reason… gain strength and pray for others. i really like this blog by the way -there is a sense of sick humor we find in such self-defeating comments haha.
