SENSITIVE – WHO ME?
I don’t know why but sometimes I get "upset" by the innocent comments people leave. I know they don’t mean me any harm. I just think that often people see only one side of the picture. Even though I wrote the poem in the previous entry I was not at all upset or depressed or anything. The words came to me and I felt I had to write them down. Granted there are times, many times when I am depressed, upset and even angry at the state the world is in but today I just had to write what I did.
Believe me I know that there are a lot of good things in the world. I know that I am very very very lucky with my health and finances. Even though a person lives in a good situation there are times when things do happen. As they say SHIT HAPPENS. So even though I am healthy I can still get upset over "trivial" things. Sure I should/could remember how lucky I am. However it is not always easy. For example if one loses a limb does it make it easier because someone lost two???????? MAYBE it should but I still lost one.
ENOUGH!!!!!
I had a great day and I appreciated my day.
I went swimming in the morning and had time to chat with some friendly women.
Then I went to the bak to make an appointment with a financial advisor. I have to figure out my best way to handle my financial mess. I go back tomorrow morning.
Then I went to PIZZA HUT! Yummy! I had time to read my book, "GONE!"
Then I went to the dermatologist. I waited about an hour but everything’s fine.
I am now home and will have a nap before supper and bridge.
WHO CAN ASK FOR ANYTHING MORE??????
I hope my note didn’t upset you 🙁 Your poem was beautiful and haunting. I loved it because it moved me on an emotional level, too. My note came from a place of love…factoring in your entries of the past few months where you have been struggling with so much loss and sadness. I felt your poem was such a creative expression of what I thought you have been struggling with recently, and I reacted to that. Many, many *hugs*. I think you are a wonderful, caring person who gives so much of herself to others. Of course you are sensitive to the things going on around you. It is what makes you the compassionate person you are 🙂

I thought it was a fantastic piece, a primal call for us all to join together for world justice by accepting each other. It was one of your best pieces of writing. But when you write, you have to expect that some will read things in it that aren’t necessarily there. There’s nothing you can do about it. And growing a thick skin can be hard. 🙂 You wrote a great piece. Be proud of it. **HUGS**

now I have got to go read the previous entry. Guess i am way behind on my reading and noting! As for writing and ‘misplaced’ notes, write the words as you feel / sense them then let go. Let them be different things to others – that’s part of the art, allowing others to create their own perspective. If others have upset you by assuming wrongly the meaning behind the words, think of it as theirissue and not yours. Now to go read it… best wishes, A

We can ALL have days when we feel blue or angry and OD is supposed to be a safe place to air our innermost thoughts and feelings. I guess the secret is to only share that as often as we need to and not dwell too much on tjhings out of our control. Hang in there Ginger… hugs p
