thanks Syag, ok i’m not horrrible. Like i said though, i already felt myself stumbling just from when we couldn’t talk lately, so i don’t believe in myself.
Your high school story sounds very similar to a friend of mine :). With this friend, after a while together we realized we were foing just that- focusing on and exacerbating the misery. And we switched to being encouraging and focusing on solutions. We’ve both been positive, and when one was down the other played the encourager. recently though, she’s been holding ME up and without her eyes seeing light, i’m stuck in the dark. writing has always been a way for me to work through emotions, both positive and negative. I 100% agree that positive writing helps me focus on that, and is a step above writing to get out the negative. But when i’m down, all my writing stops. I can’t write poems of hope and happiness, nor of tears and fears. Not at ALL taken liek mussar. To take the time to send that post shows support! I wish i could apply it, but right now its a point for me to put on hold til i get that back. Thank you.
