Hi All!

I'm reading and enjoying your contributions. Thanks for all the good vibes! They help on a rough day.  :-*

Lapis

HI LAPIS,

HOW YA DOIN TODAY SWEETS?

ARE YOU STILL HAVIN THAT DANG FLOATY / BOATY DIZZY HEADED YUCKY STUFF? 

IF SO, I'M GONNA SWIM OUT THERE TO YOU AND USE MYSELF AS AN ANCHOR TO STABILIZE THAT DARN BOAT.  EASSSSSSY / STEAAAAADY. LAND'S IN SIGHT LAPIS.  SHALL I VERY GENTLY PULL YOU TO SHORE, AND HELP YOU BACK ON TO SOLID GROUND.

I'M REACHING MY HAND OUT TO YOU....GRAB HOLD...AND WE WILL WALK THE REST OF THE WAY TOGETHER :)

 

WRAPING YOU IN MY BLANKIE THAT I JUST TOOK OUT OF THE DRYER :)

FEEL THE WARMTH :smitten:

FLUTER :smitten:

 

Omigosh Fluter! I'm bawling like a baby here! Wow! Wow. Really wow. You are awesome person. You have no idea how amazing it is to read a beautiful piece of writing like that. Zing! Right to my heart. Thank you so much. And I would very much enjoy having you anchor my "dang" floaty boat, as today's a dizzier day for me. I'm really trying to be patient here, but I've had a few doozy days recently.

 

Suffice to say, the BB gang provide something that we all know is special. But I didn't expect to come to this thread today and start bawliing -- at least, not because I was so deeply touched by words.

 

Thank you again, Fluter. Thanks Everyone.

YOU KNOW LAPIS...CRYING IS GOOD FOR YOUR SOUL!  IT IS CLEANSING!

 

YOU ARE FEELING FRUSTRATED, AND THAT IS OKAY...IT'S PART OF IT.  THIS JOURNEY IS VERY EASY TO LOOSE PATIENT'S WITH.  WERE RIGHT HERE WITH YA!

 

I KID YOU NOT WHEN I HAVE THAT AWFUL FLOATY / BOATY FEELING I HAVE BEEN KNOW TO (SHAKE MY HEAD LIKE A DOG RIDDING ITSELF OF WATER) AND IT'S ONLY BECAUSE IT IS SO ANNOYING, AND IN SOME WEIRD WAY "I'M TELLING THE DIZZIES...SOD OFF...YOUR NOT GOING TO GET THE BETTER OF ME :)  SOMETIMES IT WORKS...AND SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T.

 

THIS IS WHAT WE DO FOR EACH OTHER...WE PICK YOU UP AND CARRY YOU WHEN YOUR FEELING DOWN, WEAK, SCARED, DIZZY, LONELY, DEFEATED, TIRED, AND JUST PLAIN FRUSTRATED AND IMPATIENT.

 

WERE HERE....(FLING) HERE'S YOUR LIFE VEST...I JUST THREW IT TO YOU. HANG ON....IT'S ATTACEHD TO THIS THREAD...AND WE WILL PULL YOU ALONG...OKAY :)

 

FEEL BETTER SOON,

BIG SQUEEZY HUGS,

YOUR FLUTER FRIEND :smitten:

 

 

Thank you again, Fluter. Thanks Everyone.

Thanks for the life vest, FluterByeeBaby! Nice. It's bright orange, right? So I won't get lost in the deep blue sea? I hope the water's warm since I'm kinda skinny now. I'll keep kicking, though, and I'll meet you at the shore. Soon.

Sounds awesome! I have to pass on the whip cream, though (no cow juice for me), so how about some real dark chocolate straight up? Mmmmmmm. Very nourishing.

 

Thanks for being my swimming buddy, Fluter. We learned that you should always have a buddy when you go swimming. I guess I never dreamed that it would be a BenzoBuddie!

 

Huge hug coming atcha from chilly Canada!

JULZ,

WHAT AN AWESOME IMAGE! AND THIS QUOTE SPEAKS DIRECTLY TO MY HEART.

 

TRYING TO FIND ONE'S SELF IS NOT A VERY EASY THING TO DO...IS IT.

 

I LIKE YOU...AGREE WITH YOUR ANALOGY...HAD WE NOT BEEN PUT ON THIS PATH...THE PATH OF HEALING AND FINDING AND TRYING TO FIGURE OUT OUR LIVES...NONE OF US WOULD HAVE HAD THE PLEASURE OF FINDING INS'S MOST FABLOUS THREAD AND MEETING EACH OTHER.

 

I LOVE EVERYONE ON THIS THREAD.  THEY ARE SOME OF THE MOST UPLIFTING, COMPASSIONATE, KIND, GENUINE, AND LOVING PEOPLE I HAVE HAD THE DELIGHT TO SHARE MY DAYS AND NIGHTS WITH.

 

I AM THANKFUL AND BLESSED BY EVERYONES FRIENDSHIP, AND THEIR OWN UNIQUE PLACE WITHIN THIS THREAD :)

 

THANK YOU, HUGS TO YOU ALL  :hug:

LOVE YOUR FLUTER FRIEND  :smitten:

 

So very nicely said Fluter!  I share the same feelings about everyone here.  If I wouldn't have gone through this benzo disaster I wouldn't have had the chance to meet so many wonderful, caring, and amazing people...both here at BB and at home.

 

Love,

 

PD  :hug:

Music Video:  "Everybody Hurts" - The Corrs

 

When your day is long

And the night, the night is yours alone

When you're sure you've had enough

Of this life, well hang on

 

Don't let yourself go

'Cause everybody cries

And everybody hurts sometimes

 

Sometimes everything is wrong

Now it's time to sing along

When your day is night alone (hold on, hold on)

If you feel like letting go (hold on)

If you think you've had too much

Of this life, well hang on

 

Every hurts

Take comfort in your friends

Everybody hurts

Don't throw your hand, oh no

 

Don't throw your hand

If you feel like you're alone

No, no, no, you are not alone

 

If you're on your own in this life

The days and nights are long

When you think you've had too much of this life to hang on

 

Well, everybody hurts sometimes

Everybody cries

Everybody hurts sometimes

 

So hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on

Everybody hurts

So true Ins.  :) And it seems that when we look around and reach out to others hurting as well, our own healing tends to happen on its own, or at least it seems that way.  :):smitten:

Very wise words, Snowy.

There is healing in the human 'touch' whether in words, a smile, a kindness spoken or unspoken.

Listening to another is powerful.  We underestimate the power of listening and just 'being'

We often think we have to try to fix things; when in actuality, just being there for others is important.

It can happen while next to someone, or from hundreds of miles away.    It's feeling that someone

understands, someone cares enough to respond and acknowledge our condition, that gives hope.

Thank you, for being so caring.

Much love to you, dear Snowy.

Love,

Ins

Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swamps of the not-quite, the not-yet,

and the not-at-all.  Do not let the hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you deserved and have

never been able to reach.  The world you desire can be won.  It exists...it is real...it is possible...it's yours.  -Ayn Rand

You are so smart Ins.  :) Yes, sometimes it is best to be still and listen for the answer that might already be there. In a busy mind, its hard to recognize what we have. Its like going to the grocery store without first looking in the cupboards and coming home with more than we need, with no place to put it.  :D

 

Yes, just knowing someone cares is very comforting for sure.  :)

INS,

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL IMAGE....

YOU ALWAYS FIND THE BEST ART!

WHAT AN EXCELLENT SONG! ALL THE WORDS ARE SO TRUE!

WE DO ALL HURT SOMETIMES...

WE OFTEN KEEP THIS HURT TO OURSELVES...

THERE IS NO NEED FOR ANY OF US TO SUFFER IN SILENCE...

WE HAVE OUR BUDDIES...

AND THEY WILL BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO HELP LIFT US UP...

 

THIS IS ME...

EXTENDING MY HAND....AND REACHING FOR YOU :)

I WILL HANG ON TIGHT!
