Very true! It’s so easy to get caught up in things and forget what is most important. I lost a coworker last fall, she was only 37. Never married, no kids. Makes me so sad to think of what she missed, but at the same time she had a full life. I guess the larger lesson is to appreciate the life iou have, whatever it is and wherever you are because it can end so quickly.

Take care of yourself!

I cannot believe you buy her brand of bullshit. You're so much smarter than this, Johnny.

She's hurting because she put herself in that situation. I can guarantee she provoked the entire thing. She needs to be locked in some type of facility so she can get the mental help she needs and the rehabilitation for her drug use.

Do what you know you need to do and leave it alone.

I have been reading these blogs for a few weeks now and I seem to keep coming back to your writing. In all seriousness, you are a great writer! I'm not sure why you are unsure of that, because it is so clear to me that you have talent. You seem to be very reflective and insightful... and thoughtful of your word choices. I feel the pain and hurt and longing in your writing. Not everyone is good at conveying how they really feel with words on a page left to someone else's interpretation. Don't give up. You never know where life could take you!

Hi Johnny,

Thank you very much for your post, and I hope my transcription is OK. I found your writing very interesting! I hope your "bad feeling" re. your friend was unfounded.
