You call. Days go by. I'm still here but I don't know why. You stop in. We chat about the weather. You make plans for us getting together. I half smile. The edges are rough. Honestly it's just too much and not worth enough. You call. Days go by. Yeah, I'm still here but I don't know why. |

Oh! I know how that feels. Hate it. Nicely worded! Know yourself before you try to know someone else. |

Still here and don't know why. Sure relate to that on a number of levels, not necessarily referring to a person. Why do we do the things we do?! For instance, sometimes I wonder why I just continue in my 'time rut...' Take care, Dixie. Good to read you again... |

"I half smile. The edges are rough. Honestly it's just too much and not worth enough" Boy, does that say it perfectly, or what? You are such a joy to read. You keep hitting my heart. How can you do that? Without fail, you keep hitting my heart. Sandra |

Some habits are hard to kick! But I think you are doing better than most could in your situation. You are stronger than you give yourself credit for! I always feel your writes. Take care, Darlin' Dixie!!  Linda |

"I half smile. The edges are rough. Honestly it's just too much and not worth enough." I certainly can relate to this. Well said, Dixie! |
