Thanks for writing! I finished the transcription for your post.
I think it's good to trust your feelings, but important to question them, too, and think about your intentions, motivations, and past experiences.
I believe that no one, no matter what they've been through, is 'damaged goods'. Try to view yourself as a survivor. Focus on the humanity and small blessings you still have, and try not to dwell on what was taken from you. Easier said than done, I know.
Hey, I've just finished transcribing your post. Your artwork is lovely. It was really interesting to read about your daily routine. Thanks for taking the time to write it.
Run to the hills....run for your life! Love it. Hey Mon! Happy Birthday! I'd send you a Ziggy card, but you get it already. Glad to hear of your recent news. The real test begins on the outside. Change. You've got a fresh start. Push the reset button and start again. Proud I am of you lad! Rock it.
Sorry this is quick. Got a great belly laugh out of the lego study and Zen shotglass.

Sorry to hear about your injury. Hamstring injuries can range from a Grade 1 tear, which is just a minor strain, to a Grade 3 tear where the muscle complete ruptures. The pain is obviously greatest at Grade 3, and makes even slight movements intolerable - I wouldn't be surprised if this is the case with your injury. If you've been limping or walking awkwardly to compensate for the pain, you may get additional discomfort in another area (like your knee or hip). Or you may experience referred pain in associated joints/muscles (buttocks, calf etc.)
For a serious tear, it's recommended that you ice the area while you elevate the leg, but since ice is difficult to come by, elevating the leg should still help a little. Gentle stretching is recommended; lie flat on your back with your good leg bent (knee towards the ceiling), and slowly lift your poorly leg upwards keeping it locked straight. Pull it up towards you supporting it by gripping the back of your thigh. Do this gently - stop if it's too painful. You should only attempt to get back into light leg exercises like walking or cycling when your pain allows it - don't push too hard. A Grade 3 rupture could take months to fully heal, so unfortunately it could be a short while before you're back to normal. If you're allowed mild pain relief like ibuprofen, it can help, too. I hope this helps.
For someone who says they are not well educated, you write superbly. And for someone who says they are not a glass-is-half-full sort of person, you have an excellent positive attitude in many ways. Give yourself credit!
As for the music, creating/producing music in groups sounds like it would benefit prisoners. Perhaps a choir? You'd only need your voices, and perhaps at least one person with some musical knowledge. Or a drumming group - you needn't buy expensive kits, you can use anything (chairs, tables, books, clapping, be imaginative!).
Dear Childeric, Thanks for the reply! I can't really see how I could possibly help you. I can't find a "someone special" for you on the internet. And I think Sweetheart wouldn't understand me playing dating agency.
You are writing here on this website. Someone will recognize you as the special person you are. I'm sure about this.
By that you already have a good possibility to success. But I will come up with another opportunity soon. I'll let you know.
Keep on sending your daily writing so that it will be seen at this place more often. Good luck!
Sorry it took me so long to respond. Have you read "The Name of the Wind" by Patrick Rothfuss? If not, I would recommend it. I think you may like it. Definitely keep me posted on what you're reading. I'm always looking for something new and interesting myself.

I'm sorry to hear about your friend who died. Perhaps you could honor his memory by including him in your stories in some way?
Best wishes,

When you will read this, I am on a little journey in the Ardennes. (woods)
There i'll send you a letter.
I'm making a small suitcase.
Do you find the time to draw or do some other art, Kelly? Wondered. or are you more in the reading right now?
You wrote in your profile you love yoga, and I am curieus if you practice it? :-)
I do!
Can I send in the future nice landscapes? Nature or else? With what can I do you a pleasure, Kelly? Tell me, ok?
Let sunshine enter your life!
You're in my thoughts. Rita
Doesn't look like you post much anymore. I'd like to get you some metal in there.
Let me know if you're still kicking.
A fellow metal head.
