Rather than not being yourself, it could more have been looking at your own life, in some other-person's devious point of view.<BR/><BR/>Not that I'm an expert.<BR/><BR/>It's just, I was there. You witnessed to me. I was saved. I was changed. I'm alive, because of you.<BR/><BR/>Please don't erase that time of your life.

It's not like I've just kept it pent up, I HAVE told select people who are close to me. I can only imagine if everyone DID know.

I truly believe that at least some of them made you lose touch altogether with yourself.<BR/>Remember instead the hard work that you have done, and how miraculous the healing we see, and even the gifts that this horrible time have left you. The caring and compassionate nurse who goes the extra mile, the understanding, non-judgemental friend, the loving and giving daughter -- some of these things only develop out of times of great pain. You chose to let these things grow out of your experience.

We can't go back and erase things, but we can learn from our mistakes and move on. These things happen for a reason - and sometimes it takes us years before we find out what that reason was.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
