Thank you for your reply and insight. I have given up on some of those wishes I think. But now I am seeing that maybe my wishes were immature anyway. I just didn't realize it at the time.
I think that I thought maybe one other person could know what it was like to be me... to walk in my shoes... to fully understand. Now I realize the only one who can ever (and should ever) walk in my shoes is me.
It does let me appriciate the fact though that others can walk alongside me for a while. Sometimes they will help me keep on walking by offering me a shoulder or an arm. And that is a blessing to have people like that in my life when they are needed. And I hope I can be that person for others in my life.

That things are going back to what they always were. I just wanted to say I am sorry you are feeling this way. I too hope your book sells, it sounds an amazing accomplishment, but I also hope that one day you won't feel like you have to do it all on your own
