Life has not been easy lately.  There sure has been a lot of “stuff”.  The loud, vibrating sound of thoughts on a roller-coaster, the worry and concern that what was may never be again, the certainty that time has left you behind.

I understand those feelings, and I understand you. I know that when you growl, you don’t recognize your own voice.  I know that when you crack jokes, you’re delivering salty, tear-soaked punchlines. I know that when you read my posts, you think perhaps each are for you.

And they are, my dear friend.

They are also for me, and for the others who read them. You see, you’re not so strange feeling the feelings you feel. You’re not so alone.  You haven’t been left behind.  I am right here. We all are.

You’re a beautiful human being with a gorgeous heart, a sharp mind and a stunning, chic and precious soul.  You might be surrounded by a great big, cloudy shadow, but when I look over at you, this is what I see…

Don’t allow any person or circumstance convince you that your closest friends don’t see you clearly.

We do.

I do.

Lastly, I want to remind you that he didn’t steal your light.   All of the tears and hot air in the world cannot put it out. Your flame is eternal.

Love you,

BDC
