Thank you for all your kind words, as for venting here is the place that I feel the safest so here is where I do it now, I was surprised how good I felt after letting it out.

It was sad but inspiring to read your post and see how far you have come.

I often said there are no books that I know of to prepare you for stages in one's life. I found out the sky did NOT fall when I turned 60. We can't change what was, but we can choose our next chapter.

I thought it was going to be a nasty birthday, but in actually fact, it didn't feel much different than turning 49the year before.<br /><br />My best friend died when we were both 29, I miss her terribly.<br /><br />It's often good to vent. I am glad you feel better having gotten that all off your chest.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01051732856820479687noreply@blogger.com
