	There isn’t anything left to say except I wish I didn’t have to go through all of this to get where I am today. I have been through many of the same experiences you wrote about, and I used to wish they never happened too, but without them we would not be the people we are today. It sounds cliche, but all of the tragedies and trials really do build character and you can use those experiences to comfort other people who are struggling or who are healing afterward.   Heya thanks Orbiting,  It's actually strange .. when i wrote that last line I deleted it and the retyped it then deleted it.  I couldn't decide whether I wanted it there or not.   I feel very torn about this actually because when I look back I wouldn't want to change a single thing that happened because I know those things made me who I am today and I like me.  I guess the part of that sentence that I mean the most is that I hate going through the hurt of it now if that makes any sense. But yes otherwise I feel very torn over it .. I feel both ways.  Sometimes life can be so complicated and be so easy at the same time. Do you know what I mean ? Josh
