nothing I can really put a finger on, I'm just in a funk.
sometimes I think my ship is just sunk.
Don't think its home sickness, but I could be sick of home.
I need to get out so badly, I just need to roam.
The hubby is not happy, his math class is hard.
He has been doing the lions share of the work and perhaps just plain 'tard.
I feel guilty for not being able to do it all, perhaps I should take the med's and not worry if I may fall.
The house is a wreck that won't stop growing,
and of course our laundry is over flowing.
Three of the four kids understand my disease,
but doesn't seem to help when I say no more begging please.
So many emotions race through me.
Is it stages of acceptance or just the way its gonna be?
Am I depressed or just plain regressed?
Not really wanting any more pills, but maybe the sadness will be repressed.
So really, I just don't know and maybe that is what is starting to blow.
I hate the thought of conflict, but I think today I am in for it.
Well, I say lets get it over with, when we wait
the more tears it creates.
Hope is low and anxieties are high, If I had a special gift, I think I would just fly.
Soaring away and above, but unfortunately the occasional conflict comes with love.
So sad I am can't seem to make it go away, but I will try to if I may.
If the whole world was kind perhaps, I wouldn't feel so crappy spending too much time on my behind.
Moods are fleeting and soon go away, but my issues with my disease must be dealt with before things go awray.
Thanks to those who listen and empathize, I wish there was a way to give you a prize.
So thanks all, I consider you friends and I hope that is something that will not end.

Oh--forgot to tell you--I wish I could put a 9 on this one, but I can't so I had to settle for an 8 ~hugs~

I don't want this to sound harsh, because I know you can't "hear" how I say this, but please picture gentle, kind words. ~hugs~ The end of the stories that end "and they all lived happily ever after" are copout endings--quick easy ways to end a story. It doesn't reflect the reality of how the story actually gets to the happy ending. It doesn't detail the nights, the days, the long-assed transitions that must happen to reach a stable, happy end of the tale. You'll get that eventually Jojo--and you'll deserve it, and will have worked hard for it, just as everyone else in your story will deserve it due to hard work and perseverance. You don't have the happy ending yet, but you do have the happy beginning and a wide open shot at working to the ending. As for the prize? We already have it--you trust us enough to let us see the inner you in these poems. ~hugs~ Hang in there, ok?

Since you mentioned it, there is a booked titled "All Sickness is Homesickness." The author makes a case for just that based upon Traditional Chinese Medicine. In the words of my Guru, Yogiraj Swamiji Bua: "You are not this body, you are not this mind, you are not this intellect, you are not this ego. You are Something Supreme. You are Something Divine." May God Bless Us All.

It is times like these that life is lived decision to decision. Just keep in mind that your universe is still yours because all of these decisions are still yours to make. Your words are so powerful and will give others a chance to see into the mind of someone facing something that might bring others to their knees. Thank you for sharing. Take care my friend. =0)
