Hi there Lonely One. I haven't heard from you in a long,long time. Merry Christmas.
I'm sorry that you have been having a hard time over a long period of time. Please hang in there. Brokenfriend

Just wanted to leave Lonely1 a hug.

Thank you Alffe.

Hi Lonely,
when I felt alone,
separated,
wanting the pain of life to fade,
I was so internally focused on
being alone..... and lonely,
and
it deepened my darkness
the hole into which
I was withdrawn
so it was,
in faith,
life,
became a bursting fount of joy
as through prayers uttered by so many
God became my hiding place and solace
an ever present friend
to SHOW me in my darkness
there really was light
and
I was drawn back away from the abyss of darkness
which had held me imprisoned
so joy might flow from me
to be shared with others
and in the sharing
though it might only be
a word or two shared here
both peace became the fillng of my heart
and the tremendous pleasure of
helping another
drew me
into
bright light.
Thus I pray you may be with me
in light
having joy
even for a while
today

How are you my friend? We care and miss you.

I'm... still here... for whatever that's worth.

I try not to think... about anything... ever. Life's just more bareable when I don't have to remember the past, or pretend to care about the future. The world is a bland, joyless place, but there's nothing I can do about that, so it's not worth the effort of contemplation.

I really don't know what else to say. I'm not happy, but there's nothing new about that. I'm just trying to do, and say, and think, as little as possible. In the choice between complete misery and complete apathy, I guess I chose apathy. Oh well... whatever...

Thank you for the thought though.

For you Lonely, for others here, for me...... we may grasp the joy God holds forth for us.

Sometimes hard to see
