To all of my R.A. Family, from Squarehead Ken....with love....

[Guest guest]

Greetings to you all...

I'm sorry I haven't posted any thing at all,

Sorry that it has been so long.....

You see, sometimes I'm " toasted " , and I fall;

, I find myself,sometimes, just not so strong

as I used to be.

There are so many of you I have come to love,

so many of you always on my mind,

But, sometimes darkness falls,from " up above "

and in my " mist " ,things are " hard to find " ...

and I can't see.

Please forgive me.

Sometimes I have my own little " Pity Party " ,

thinking things are oh so bad for me,

Frail, now, when I used to be so Hearty,

and Reality becomes so hard to see..........

Then, something WONDERFUL happens to be,

Because of this Group so blessed!

I open " this Window " , of folks just like me....

and am able to flee from my " nest " .!

There are so many many of you,

that share the same damn pain,

That I can name but just a few,

Like ,up in Maine,

Like Ohio's Marina, and Oregon's Pat,(and all the other Pat's too),

Judith Ann, in Arizona, and Jersey's , too!

There are so many,I can't name you all,but with ALL of you I share

that sense of one ness, togetherness,comprised of love, and care.....

I come to realize many of you hurt so much more than I,

and believe it or not, your plight makes me cry,

and I'm shamed by my selfish complaints!

My woes are small, compared to some,like those who lost a loved one,

in pain, yet still like a Saint, just keep on going!

I am honored that you have " Taken me in " ,and I feel secure in knowing

that we are all family!

That, my dear friends ,is why some times,no one hears from me....

You ALL have enough upon your own plate,to listen to MY misery!

I LOVE you ALL! you are special to me!

With out you,I'd surely be lost!

The love you send me sets me free,

given by you, with no cost.!!!

I leave you, now, for just a while,but I've just one more thing to say:

I hope it leaves you with a smile,and helps you on your way.....

*****To be " up " is great! To be " down " is a bummer!.

But, to remain between the two is to be stagnent.......

To go from one to the other is a thing called " life " ******

May you all have a wonderful pain fre day!

I love you all with all I have.And Jan? Bless you for

all that you send us! All my love..Ken

Ken ~ I am very new to this group, just joined today. I have been reading all

of the posts. Although I do not know you, I completely understand you. I too

recently went through that same melt down... You do not have to be sorry. We

all understand, as we all go through this same thing at some point. Some of us

do much more than others! Please try to keep your head high and spirits up!

YOU are a gift from above just as you are! We all are! Be thankful for who you

are and the love you have. Remember God only deals us what he knows we can

handle!

Sending you lots of HUGS!!!

Ken,

So glad you're done having a private pity party. I've had way to many

of them myself.

It's not easy dealing with all that we deal with, but I'm glad we can

all come here and

cheer each other up.
