Starry-eyed Pirate , That was very inspiring ... I can only hope for the original poster that they can find the determination and strength you must have had to overcome your own situation.
I often lack this in myself and your post reminded me of this. Straight taught us that fighting our current situation, however terrible it may be , is futile. SO many of us learned to give up prematurely. I now see this in myself.
Thank you for being here walking with us. I need to know how others have endured , so that I may continue to move forawrd.[ This Message was edited by: Withdraw on 2005-09-08 15:23 ]
