The voice quietly says "I'm scared" it's a warm voice a voice that waits "What scares you sweetheart?" I ask the voice replies "me, I'm afraid of me" Would it help to talk, I ask "I couldn't said the voice You'll laugh at me" No, I won't sweetheart I promise ! 4 hours later the voice continues in warm whispers laughter replacing commas Finally at 8am my shift ends I say goodbye to my neighbour on the phone... she never knew it was me and I've never mentioned it |

Oh Cindy, you are adorable! A truly wonderful person, with the kindest of hearts. I'd also like to thank you for being there for me this morning, and for your help. I don't know what I would've done otherwise. Thanks honey *HUGS* BIG ONES |

Cindy - You must have about 300 pounds of love packed into the little body of yours. You are by far one of the sweetest souls I have ever met. There is a goodness about you that radiates warmth to every person you bless with your words and kindnesses. You will always be "Queen" to me. |

Ohhhh thanks guys.. DA: I'm happy I was around, glad it helped.. HUGS all ps: It's no good I have to be honest, I'm not sweet and if I get hurt and don't understand why, believe me, I am far from sweet but there's a part of me that wants to reassure people and I guess that anger is also part of love, so one doesn'r detract from the other...I hate the thought that you allt hink I'm sweet when I can be the very opposite at times.

a beautiful poem, it always helps to have some one to reach to even if they are a stranger on the phone. "I've been too honest with myself I should have lied like everybody else" faster-Manic street preachers. |
