hi there Zig and all... thanks for keeping up on the thread Zig, its helping a lot having another who's experienced some of my same events in life... stuff like caretaking and substance and alcohol abuse and co dependencies and trying to find sense through the misty haze...

i like your attitude of healing Zig... you're helping us all and i'm really thankful.. i hope you can continue your upwards journey and allow yourself to be human as well... pretty sure you understand about the power of forgiveness and its healing affects and you seem wise enough to understand about starting over and trying again and never giving up on yourself and your goals and dreams... you believe you do matter and you are taking an active role in the events in your world and i wanted you to know that at times we all will struggle with perception and understanding... but it truly is our spirit that drives us forward to greet what promises to be another challenging day in many ways but you have learned about inner strength and not letting sorrow defeat you... you have my strength and support always... never give up
