Hey man, my most sincere appreciation.

I reached out just to blow off some steam the other day….

https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=forum&id=1151

Your compassion and empathy blew me out of the water. It was a particularly emotional day and your love, friendship, advice and shared experience pushed me over the edge. I couldn’t deal, man. Just couldn’t deal. I needed to stop crying and you people….if I continued reading at that point, I’d have ruined my leather couch with tears, dig?

Flash forward two days later and there’s all these responses. I wish I had the time to thank you all by replying to each of your posts. I just don’t. Thinking maybe my post explains why? Regardless. I sincerely appreciate the well wishes, shared experience and advice I was given. I’m blessed to be part of this community and just wanted you all to know how much I appreciated your responses to a “blowing off steam” post.

Every reply, and I mean every reply, was cherished and helpful. It was just too much to deal with emotionally in the moment. I hope you’ll all forgive me for not responding. Just wasn’t there at the time.

All me love,
Glam

Just feel guilty with so many responses and no replies. It was a particularly emotional day…

Was it about your mom and trying to deal with her declining health? That is what I am assuming. You rarely respond to my questions about her and I understand if it is too difficult. You know you are always in my thoughts.

You and I talked over the weekend about it. And by talked I mean PM'd. It was that one. I just couldn't respond that day and after all was said and done there were 70 responses that I didn't respond to. Just wanted my friends to know they weren't being ignored.....just couldn't.

We do make allowances for those who engage in real life.

Been isolating for 2 yrs here, living vicariously. 😏
