It's so good to hear from you!
I'...Valerie! It's so good to hear from you!<br />I'm sorry to hear you've been having a hard time too. I think these last couple years have been rough for everyone. :(<br />But I'm happy that you were able to get so much out of me sharing my experiences. I think that's what makes the trouble worth it: being able to know what pain is like so you can help others get through the same pain.<br />I'll probably be posting more ways to stay positive throughout the year because as I've been going along I've noticed more ways to improve my outlook.<br />I'll be praying for you too. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers!Emily Sampsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12704011983046777681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3723208552359856632.post-53402059161580744432012-01-09T03:41:12.671-05:002012-01-09T03:41:12.671-05:00Emily...I haven't kept in touch, I know but I ...Emily...I haven't kept in touch, I know but I was actually on Timu-chan's website, looking for contact information to get help with a website and saw yours as one he hosted. I clicked on your website and then onto this journal. <br /><br />I'm very sorry to hear that things have been so bad for you lately. While I can't compare or judge pain, I will admit that the last few years have also been very hard for me, to the point where I have wanted to give up on it all at some points. Many of the things you mentioned above are things that helped me get through these extremely rough patches. Even now, while things aren't impossible as they have been at times, life is still difficult. Reading your journal really helped me. It's a struggle for me to remain positive when it's so very easy to slip down into depression, anxiety, and despair. <br /><br />I wanted to thank you for your post, for your extreme open honesty, and your advice. I plan on trying to use a lot of your revelations to help myself and others I know who are struggling to remain positive, happy and healthy. <br /><br />I hope that things start to turn around for you. I believe as well that having a positive attitude is key. It can't necessarily make miracles happen, but being positive and happy shows and influences others, and can help bring about good things in your life and in others lives. Again, I hope that you are able to experience true joy again, and know that I will be keeping you in my prayers.<br /><br />Sincerely, <br /><br />ValerieZethsairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04555678427227343955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3723208552359856632.post-90368002486855482572012-01-08T00:27:18.675-05:002012-01-08T00:27:18.675-05:00Thanks Meredith! p.s.
