In reply to Phil, how are you?, posted by Noa on February 8, 2000, at 7:17:14
> Phil, I haven't seen you around these parts much lately. How are you? How's the job search? How are the meds? Thinking of you....
>>Noa, If you have Tigerlily by Natalie Merchant,read the words to song 6. I can't say it any better.
You are a fine person, Noa. If I knew where you lived and could find you in your condo, I'd give you a big hug.
Things will work out for me but I've got to say, life has never been more empty. At least once a day, when I allow myself to really look at my situation, I am just overcome with emotion.
My coping skills that were learned growing up in an alcoholic home i.e. push others away don't work these days. Basically, I'm relying on a miracle. My reserves are low.
Say a prayer for me, Noa, but at the same time, know that I do have a glimmer of faith. If I didn't, I wouldn't be here to write this.
I, too, will pray for all those that suffer. It's in the giving that we receive...I don't know you Noa but for your gift of compassion, I can say that I love you. I'm sure many on this board feel the same.
Phil
