Response to comments

I know that I'm not doing too well, and I'm fully aware that there are people out there suffering from potentially fatal heart conditions or from depleted uranium. It doesn't console me because then I imagine what those people must feel like. It angers me because I want to do something to help, but can't.
Anyway, I hope that everyone is doing sort of decent. I'm slowly recovering, but I do feel waves of aggression washing over me, which really isn't anything new these days...
Oh well, I need to get to bed.

All of my love out to everyone,
Bettina

Ah, Bettina... when are you going to learn that there's no reason worrying about the things you can not change? One of the reasons I read the heart boards is because I see that I'm not alone, and I don't really have it that bad. Don't get so caught up in the problems of life that you forget how to enjoy what minor pleasures it offers, for the relatively short amount of time you're given.

Remember, I've been there, went on the ride, and got the T-shirt.

Bettina,

I'm so sorry to learn things have been so hard. It definitely isn't easy being a human being. You are such a sensitive and caring person, and sometimes that makes tough times all the tougher. I don't know if this will be helpful at all, but for what it's worth, when I am at my lowest, the one thing that always seems to help is feeling like I can make a difference. Even a little volunteering can do that. It's easy to feel like slipping away, like a do-over would be better. But I at least always feel energized when I actually do find ways to act on whatever feelings I have (even rage) in positive ways.

Eating a good dinner helps too. :)

love,
adrienne
