Angry at the helplessness you feel over the situation, anger over the loss, just anger. It's OK to feel it Kathy, express it and try to let it go, but IT TAKES TIME. Just understanding it for what it is..........is the battle, truly. Keep talking to us honey, it helps, one step at a time....... much love Lisa Anger is a huge part of grief.

Sat, 15 Jan 2011 01:33:43 +0000 http://rogersgardengate.com/wpblog/?p=2214#comment-7140 You have a great way of expressing how you are feeling. Like yourself, I am a depressive and I fight that "demon" on a daily basis. When I had to face the death of my dad, there was so much that I needed to address. The things unsaid, the little things I did not take the time to do for him, the time I could have spent with him. All of those just added to my depression, but as you noted, it is just part of the grief process. Does time take away the regret or feeling of loss.....no. But time does make it easier to bear. Dealing with grief is different for every person, it takes longer for some to be able to get on with their lives. But like you said, taking the bull by the horns is what we need to do when we feel overwhelmed. Easier said than done, but it can be done. Hang in there. Peace.

Writing about it can truly help sort all the events that have flown at you in the last 6th months. I know you grieve the loss of webmaster as you needed to make that choice. It still is and always will be a part of you. You are correct, we will stumble, fall and get back up again, doing this all with the love of our friends in our hearts. It truly carries you through, truly..... Much, much love honey.... So good to see this honey. Writing about it can truly help sort all the events that have flown at you in the last 6th months.

You are a very caring person and your blogs are very expressive about how you feel in the moment. You are not afraid to be honest - an enviable quality.... We also have Sunday's chat to share and ramble incoherently (well that last bit might just be me..! loved the swapping of chocolate themed websites) You also have a terrific sense of humour...I love your wit and observations. Perhaps you could video a blog...just a thought...! Keep up the good work...M x Kathy,
