Awareness of Emotions

Sometimes, people enter into your lives, and you arent sure (at that moment) why in particular THIS person is in your life, or why at THIS point of my life...I have friends that have come into my life, and there are a couple that over the years, I have become even very good friends with. One, I can tell we have each even confided in each other over time certain details of our lives that very few, if any one, else knows. A friend of mine told me about a blog that she followed, and that she asked me to read it. I dont ever remember going to someone's blog, and be overcome with emotion like I was, when I went to Sara's blog and read hers. Unfortunately, when I began to read her blog, it was the day that her family had taken her home to live the final days of her life, and I began to cry. Here was someone who was letting the world in, not only to her illness (read the ABOUT ME section about her disease), but then into her final days. (There was another note up tonight saying she was at her home resting peacefully). It really made me think. It made me think that all the bullshit I complain or bitch about, and even some of the stuff that I boast about, my life is really nothing compared to this person, who is dying way too young, and dying from a debilitating disease. Who am I to sit here and complain about stuff, when there are people in this world who are dying from a disease we have no cure for. This goes for Breast Cancer, Ovarian Cancer, Duchenne's Disease, and so much more. I have also realized that my outlet to deal with everything going on with my life, I have been ignoring like a red-headed step-child (not that there is anything wrong if you have a red-headed step-child -- its just a figure of speech!) :) LOL I will attempt to do more with this side of my life, as time allows.

Thanks for stopping by to read my life in words.... its time for Sleepy-ville.
