And that it was freeing for you to write, as well.Tamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10061237531468065806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6591089340797885298.post-42747579131726700662013-05-28T22:15:25.651-04:002013-05-28T22:15:25.651-04:00oh dear friend. you are more than this terrible i...oh dear friend. you are more than this terrible illness!! and I know firsthand because we have a family member who is in a very bad way due to it right now. he cannot even been in our lives because he just doesn't have a handle on it right now and can be dangerous. But, but, but.... we Love him still. We just have to practice tough love with him sometimes is all. But one thing we have learned, however we try to help or encourage and sometimes even instruct: it always has to come from a place of love.<br />And there's a big difference between being worthless....and unworthy. There are times we may not feel worthy of the friendship, support and love that if offered to us: but we are never ever worthless. not ever.<br />Lots of love and hugs and prayers for brighter days my friend! xx <3Tamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10061237531468065806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6591089340797885298.post-57320792082437417652013-05-28T21:48:40.851-04:002013-05-28T21:48:40.851-04:00Thank you Kim.
