I too only know of one person, Attie, who has gotten better

Dear Bobby,
Attie is the person I remember too.
The holidays don't bother me much. Since I was 5 my family celebrates the holiday strictly as a religious holiday. I go to church that day.
At night I have been picturing my friend who was in a diabetic coma last year (december) for 9 days. She came out of it the Sunday before Christmas and I was the first one who saw her awake. I have been replaying how that time went for us (fam and friends) ). She is ok now, going to school and working at a job she likes...and taking her meds.
I guess I have been thinking about the journey of bipolar. The bipolar has set me on a different path than I had planned in my early 20s. But that is true of most people -- our early 20s plans don't hold up.
I've been wondering what kind of journey I am on.
I am certainly not on a journey to accomplish/achieve great things because I can't do that.
Perhaps the journey is to find meaning in the life as it is.
Mari
