Tango, THANK YOU! I will always remember you when I'm feeling lonely and unloved.

And I agree with turquoisesea that you should never compare yourself with others. Some people live through horrors and seem to be relatively unscathed by them. I think it's wonderful for them, but don't understand how they are able to it. Others may not have come through "horrors" but what difficulties and burdens life has given them is enough to sink them. Their pain and inability to cope is just as valid as anyone elses. We are all different. Thank you again.
