Just Me...May, 2008

Not the best webcam shot, but I didn't know what else to do. I wasn't in the mood for playing around. Lol. But I wanted to thank all of you SO MUCH for the responses to my post yesterday. My gosh, I didn't know it would even generate a "take it easy" from any member. Thank you for your concern. All your comments really did make me feel a bit better about myself. I'm not doing cartwheels (probably would end up in ICU anyways!), but I don't feel as hollow. I've never met any of you, and yet you have been encouraging and comforting towards me. Thank you again. You all have generous spirits. I'll try to keep posting, but I'm still sad..about different matters. I slept a lot today. Maybe that also helped a bit. But what I would love most of all is to curl up against the man I love (which there is not one), have him wrap his arms around me and stroke me in a gesture of compassion and support, and to just stay that way without the need for either of us to speak. To be given the gift of that physical tenderness without the unspoken hint towards something sexual would mean the world to me. Thank you all again for all your words. I was wondering what in the world I had ever done to deserve all these lovely comments. Thank you for surprising me.
