longing for and missing them
this post by helenlee is so deep and wise, i didn't want it to be missed by anyone:
"I don't have a degree in anything ... but I always found that the extent to which I missed him was the extent to which I was willing to go to avoid myself. It took me a very, very long time to figure that out though. The person you ache for isn't him - how could it be a wasted, using, irresponsible bum? It's you that you long for honey, & I reckon somewhere deep down you'll recognize that truth.
This is going to be the hardest walk you've ever done in your life, but if you want to live, walk right outta there & don't look back. You can do it. One step at a time.
Peace,
Helen

Read and understand the above, and save thousands of dollars in therapy. That is amazing, and I needed to hear it tonight too. Thank you!
