Hey JT,

It takes a lot of strength and courage to face our feelings and be honest about them. Get it up and out and walk past until the next lesson.

I remember being at my father's funeral. I did really well holding in the tears like everyone else. I fell apart for an hour when I got back to my moms. I cried so deep and never had to cry again over his death. My aunt was there and made a remark like "Why are you crying? Your father loved you?"

I thought "What the hell is wrong with you people. I just lost my father and will never see him again. Why is everyone sitting here trying not to cry. There is just something not right about that. You stupid people." And when we were first told he was dead my older sister sat with a smile with shoulders back. The social worker looked at her and said. "You must be the oldest" I thought I would gag. Our society has everything half ass backwards.

There I feel better.

Hugs to you today.
