@MAE1701 Proud of you! Those are big steps and an even bigger step is recognizing how big those accomplishments are!

Why
@mikenai22
Why? Oh, Great Question!!
I'll let you know as soon i find out.
Im still looking for answers to to who?, what?, where?, when?, and how?
@humorousDay8793
well, its just questions pondering, wandering in my head.
i see you have yours too. i presume to be fair, that it should be the same with anyone else.
@mikenai22
Hi, Yes i suffer a lot, chronic pain, depression, ptsd, and great losses. Im always wondering why, or how could this be the reality im left facing. I started a thread in the diary forum section to post all my innermost ponderings, rhymes, and thoughts. Sometimes i find answers, ofyen other people have really productive things to offer in comments. Be good to yourself, it has much to do with how well we learn to take care our ourselves. Best wishes 🖒😊

Hi humorousday.
I see. It has been difficult for you. Yes the questions, self-blame is always ruminating. Sometimes it may be good to explore the reasons. But sometimes it might just be better off left unanswered. Most importantly is seeing the need to get over or must to move on. If one is to constantly dwell/loop/stay about the past in present moment... like me. Its probably not a good choice.
Nice to hear that you've made effort to think through, trash (write) them out. Well, whether if there is answers or not, whether someone comment or not, whether if there is an answer or not. Sometimes I feel it just abit of connection, timing and act of nature. If there is, great, if there isn't, probably it just as it is. Or maybe perhaps its just not the right moment. Maybe trying again later may give something.
You are very strong to be able to think and reply this manner. I doubt i am able to. Wonder if i will ever. Nevertheless thanks for the well wishes, and you too do take care.

Thanks a lot! Ive already done some real digging into the past and its absolutely shocking. So shocking it stops me so i take bites at it when im ok and self care nursing my wounds like a torn up old dog just out of a dog fight with the big chain weighting me down. Trying to write poems, raps, and rhymes helps occupy my mind, It helps me unwind. Your very creative, you have an outlook i find very intetesting. Thats gonna come in very handy. Your much stronger than you know. I pray you are never tested to your limits, but limits are something we create for ourselves, so if your ever at your limits, create new limits you need to be able to find more strength. Next time your really tested to the max, spin it; be grateful for being chosen to be tested, then pass with straight A's! Creativity has been grace when i face a tough pace in the race, or i run out of space without a trace of grace. There is no discrace, there always a place to be safe😉

Don't mention, humorousday. You efforts do show. And I hope the betterment for you and also for your well being. Stay strong.
Blue - Wow... Sorry humorous. I can't comment. I'm just totally stunned at how you present yourself. And how you manage to even come up with it.
@humorousDay8793
Im a sagittarius so im a very deep and private person, especially when it comes feelings/emotions etc...
So even though talking to someone face to face is difficult, ive found just writing things down helps. I try to also write positive thoughts, or write about plans im making to look forward to. My mother used to call me a "dark horse" . I was very introverted when young and even tho im much better now. If you put me in a room with 5 other strangers, i'd be the last one to speak....
I just prefer to sit back and listen/observe. Its always been an easy way to find out who is worth getting to know and who isnt. Even though i only have one true friend lol We found each other a couple of months ago on facebook. We have known each other for 30 years as we met at high school...
But im rambling, my point is writing is a dying art. I mean real writing, not just a "yo wot u up 2?" lol
Good for you, keep writing and i hope it keeps helping you 👍
Sincerely M.

Concerned..... Not for myself but for a friend, someone who needs the help of a more capable person than me.
@lazyKatz
Be brave and unafraid to save your friend Dave, if that's tbeir name, there no shame in reaching out sayin it'll be ok, try to find a way to explain, it's not a game we play, it could be a real life you save ⏳
@humorousDay8793
