what an interesting, thought-provoking thread~! i hadn't stopped to think how many other people there are like me, going thru life wondering what's going on with other people; not having deep friendships that last; being quick to wander off.

a little while back, i realized that i had never bonded with my parents, and was a vagabond at a very young age (2), a caretaker of my siblings at 5, at risk all my life of various kinds of abuse and injury; all these things took their toll on my ability to trust and forum bonds with others, esp. others who were different than myself.

i have come to be my own best friend, and it's not an ideal relationship LOLOL. ohh, the work still to be done to be at peace with who i am~! yet, i believe that i will get there, if not in this lifetime, then in the next.

one endeavors to persevere~
