I don't often do personal, 'real-life' posts. In fact, I'm not sure I've ever done one before. And to be honest, this probably won't be all that personal anyway.

It's just that I'm a very long way from home this week, and unable to talk to my very good friend, when I could actually do with having a jolly good vent at her and having her tell me, in her own blunt but caring way, to get a grip on myself!

You see, sometimes my head gets in a muddle. It gets worked up over something, going over and over the issue with no resolution; I guess this probably happens to everyone at some point. But it's doing it right now, and I really wish it wasn't, as it's most inconvenient and uncomfortable. It was inevitable really, given the circumstances, but stupidly I wasn't really prepared and I'm not dealing with it all that well.

Still, I'll be home in four days. Just four days and I can give my friend a ring and hopefully sort my head out. Until then, I'm afraid, dear Friends' list, it's just you, me and my cryptic, rambling nonsense.

Really, life does this to us at times, and while we try our hardest to figure it our it never works out the way we want it. It will get better, trust in that. I'm here for you, and even if I'm not your dear friend (I have one of those btw the blunt but caring sort) I hope that will give something else to chew on.

I understand how you feel. Our problems might be different, but the current situation is very similar. As digitalldollies said, it will get better. At least I hope very much it will.
And we should be thankful for such friends, thankful that we have them. Even though they are not always present locally, they are always there for us, just as we are there for them.

I'm jealous you have such a close friend. I never have learned the art of making deep friendships like that.

Just say to yourself What Would ________ Do? And then follow her advice as you already here it in your head. I know, I know. Easier said than done!
