I was just thinking about this the other day. So many of us going through so much. I know that for me part of it is the shorter day, that it gets dark so early and the holidays are coming up and I don't really have any plans to engage in them. But I know what you mean. I'm just grateful that there are people out there who really understand what I'm going through. I remember going through depression without support and it was much worse. Like ktgirl said, at least we can be together.

"Real isn't how you are made," said the Skin Horse. "It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real."

"Does it hurt?" asked the Rabbit.

"Sometimes," said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. "When you are Real you don't mind being hurt."
