Class Announcement

Trying and caring - what a lovely name im glad things are improving for you - thankyou for shedding the tears that I and others cannot cry if ok

This was in an email I received this morning. As usual, it sent me off to freely wander my mind. Chock full of questions and whatnots, I believe this song suits us and what we do for each other here in PC.
There are various, and sometimes conflicting, sources for it.
I believe many people connect it to the military...it's not the only connection and is not the major one.

We carry each other here; sometimes we do the carrying.
**Please note that "brother" is meant for male and female**

Thank you for the many times you have carried me.
Thank you for allowing me to carry you.

My Sisters, My Brothers



The road is long
With many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where,
Who knows when
But I'm strong,
Strong enough to carry him.
He ain't heavy, he's my brother.

So on we go.
His welfare is my concern.
No burden is he to bear,
We'll get there.
For I know
He would not encumber me
He ain't heavy, he's my brother.

If I'm laden at all,
I'm laden with sadness
That everyone's heart
Isn't filled with the gladness
Of love for one another.

It's a long, long road
From which there is no return.
While we're on the way to there,
Why not share?
And the load
Doesn't weigh me down at all.
He ain't heavy, he's my brother.

He's my brother.
He ain't heavy, he's my brother...

Thank you ((((Catherine)))))

it's not that i am not feeling cared for or carried
i am feeling like i am too heavy even for a group effort.
i am feeling like there is no point
there is no reason
just in a bad and scary place right now.....

I'm so sorry you are hurting...

Catherine

please don't leave me

((((white iris))))
not leaving you - you're stuck with us

((((((((((((Fuzzybear))))))))

Standing with you
no matter what

white_iris
you are one of us
we don't leave one of our own, and I do not say that lightly.

In Peace

they ALWAYS leave me
i dont matter

((FP))
I don't know who "they" are, but they sure as heck aren't us!

We are not leaving you, either...

don't forget...you are one of us
an important one

No...We stick together through it all!!

sitting with you - together we canlight the universe and fight the darkness - do not deapair together we are invincible

Im asking this circle of angels to protect everyone....

Thank you everyone for your being so supportive. It is very lonely in that "dark place" and having friends who shine lights makes getting thru tough times much easier. I don't fall over my feet as much and can make out some of the "pit falls" on my way out of this hole.

coming back to "myself" again.....Please keep those lights shining, it really is helping

trigger icon added for anyone who is not up to a raving rant...

It's not that I had become complacent, I had become fairly comfortable, though, as I strolled along my path of healing...of and not to...the word healed to me is akin to saying cured.
My own personal opinion is we are not cured, we reach a point where enough healing has occurred for us to take another step.
I try and build on those steps; sometimes I am successful, other times I am not...called being human, isn't it?

My anger about my physical health problems is not going to change a thing. Suck it up, I know...
Anger is just a feeling. I know.
...add in any other platitudes, I'm out of them right now.

There are times when I think it is unfair to add in another challenge/WTH/ ?? to my life after dealing with so much.
Pity pot? Probably.

Still, I am frigging mad that I couldn't have at least a few months freedom from fighting...to be honest, though, I did have many, many moments of contentment. It's far too easy for me to forget that when something new comes along.

I know, truly know, that I will come through this intact.
Being strong, brave, etc. be damned
I'm angry
Poof! To The Platitudes

...I'm too nauseated to do my Drink From The Can Of Hershey Syrup, and life is beautiful again.
Shock waves are rippling through the chocolate community; I'm their best customer.

In Peace...right now it's bits and pieces of peace

I'm picking up my protest sign and joining in.


And I know the others will be along soon.

Coffee is on me after the protest
well, not on me
My treat along with crumb cake that is prohibited from having calories as an ingredient.

I'm going out to my yard and look for trouble...

(((Catherine)))

Sometimes it does seem unfair and no one is going to fault you for feeling like that...I think we all do occassionally. Your pieces will come back together. I wish you healing, peace of mind and a return to contentment.

Here with you! Susan

(((((( Catherine ))))))

Hmmm... crumb cake Blizzards.

Why? I'm right here. And notz is around here somewhere.

(((((catherine)))))
did you find "trouble" ? i thought i saw him down by the lake taking a swim.

yep, I tackled him
he hollered in surprise
when I pinched his cheeks
still got it--I ran faster than the cop who came to his aid.

Kidding around helped, it really did
but I've super glued my bat to my hands

Now I'm embarrassed from being petulant and having a temper tantrum equal to the storms marching across GA.
The lights go off and the sirens start up? I sat here itching with a capital B.

Now that is sorry *** behavior.
