Sometimes I go back and read my old blog entries to make me feel better. In reading about my past I feel wiser and better equipped for what I deal with now. Or sometimes I just need a laugh--I'm my biggest fan. But more often than not, it's the comments on my blog entries that keep my going. A blog entry made five years ago this month rang true with me today, and the comments rang even truer. Check out "Running Away" 9/26/2006 and the comments I received. Among the wisest and most touching was the following:
Go ahead. I've done it more times than I can remember. Nobody says you have to actually leave to run away. You can still go to work, pretend to live life, act normal on the outside. I think we all need to from time to time- nothing to be ashamed of. I don't really trust people who have never had the need or desire to run away. People who have needed to run understand me and what I am going thru. It’s sad, some people who call themselves my friends don't even know when I’ve gone- but others come to visit. So go ahead, we will all be here for you when you feel you can come back. I'll try to be one of those who visits when I'm invited, and I'll leave the light on for you when you return. Safe travels Mich, you will be in my prayers, and I might even see you on the road.
