Regrouped

I've done something here on the blog and in my emails lately that I've never done much of in my real life. I've let people see that things can get me down.

I thought, at the time, it might be liberating. Or that I might find some emotional support by letting these dark inner thoughts escape out into the light.

It didn't have that effect though. I'm not sure what effect it did have, but it didn't make me feel any better by sharing. It made me feel uncomfortable.

Guess I'm just happier when I get all the extraneous emotions tucked out of sight before I talk to others. I really am, for the most part, an optimist. But some days it takes a little longer for me to come to terms with "the bad".

But come to terms with it, I do. Every time.

Just like now. My physical situation hasn't improved. In fact, I had a bit of a set-back this afternoon, but emotionally, I'm on top of the game again.

To those of you that I hit up when I was feeling down; Thank you for standing by me.

I owe you all drinks!
