A flood of emotions

    This has been a very hard month for me.

    18th anniversary of my brother's death;

    Meeting (after a 15-year hiatus) a long-time JW friend, in dire straights, and lots of deep-seated triggers being pulled in the course our conversation;

    My closest, and longest (30-year and running) "worldly" friend and business partner, going through a painful divorce;

    And helping another very precious friend move to his new place this last weekend, after years of immeasureable pain.

    If I may humbly ask, please tolerate my indiscretions.

    And thank you! to Simon and all you others for 'throwing the blanket.'

    Very Sincerely,

    Craig

    Craig,

    THAT'S what so lovely about you! Your feelings!!

    What the heck are we without emotions? Nothing!

    Glad to know you're still a GENUINE part of the human race.

    Love,Ian

    ((Lee)) I know you know what I'm saying!

    SLH, it was little-oI-me what locked your thread this evening. "Someone" with a wider view of things chose otherwise

    Ian, dear bloke...you've laid out your heart here on this db like very few others...and like so many others.

    ((((((((((((((((((Craig))))))))))))))))))))) you sure are going thru alot. It is so true , when it rains it pours.

    I am just now ,,the last few weeks feeling better after alot of personal stuff,,,,,and I can say, I am so glad. I am not sure how much longer I could have taken the constant pain and pressure.

    Rest assured Craig that your time of peace will come soon, make it happen for yourself , for your own sanity. It just seems these bad times for us , come in cycles and then level out to just normal bull , ya know.

    I am really sorry you are going thru so much , but it seems you are really trying so hard to help other people.....sometimes you need to take care of yourself. Sometimes helping people , as bad as we want too can be so hard on us emotionally, because we want to help so very bad.

    I hope tomorrow and the days to follow soon will find you in a place of peace Craig,,,,,,,,,give Katie a kiss and hug,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,hugsss to you ,,,,,,,,,Dede

    (((( onacruse )))) And to top it all off, I see by your profile, you've had a sex-change operation. Perhaps that would help explain your fragility at this time.

    Take care

    Craig,

    take it slow, and do not "beat yourself up".
