Hey, kid. You know, a few months back, I posted about the fact that I have a husband who regularly suggests I take bubble baths, a beautiful son who knows nothing is wrong with the world except the fact that Elmo is not on TV twenty-four hours a day, and friends who rival my trained therapist in the support and empathy departments. I have a great life and I most definitely have moments of feeling like a spoiled rotten child.

Until days like today. My husband asked me a few pointed questions about my therapy and I ended up blurting out a bunch of painful things I had never shared with him. I saw the hurt in his eyes. He was hurting for me. I was hurting and have been hurting for me.

No matter what is on the surface, I have to remember it may be exactly that - just the surface. Many, if not all, of us here are suffering from pain that runs much deeper and I think it is what keeps many of us Babblers feeling so connected. That said, we all deserve to be free of the deep hurt many of us are living with. Including you, kid.

I struggle with this and I imagine I will continue to struggle with it. I have to constantly remind myself that it's okay to take care of myself, yet it's the first thing I tell others to do and I will make no exception for you.

Take care of yourself,

All Done aka Putzette writing this at two o'clock in the morning
