tonight i’ve been smacked in the face by how very alone i am.
right now i’m in so much pain. i’m so unsure and just so very tired and i can’t even share that pain. even if i knew how or wanted to, there just isn’t anyone on earth that i can share this with. nobody.
sure i realize that i am wallowing in self-pity and that i should be drawing on my immense inner-reserves and what not. but right now i haven’t the energy. right now i’d very much like someone to give me a cookie and rub my forehead and tell me everything’s gonna be ok.
that’s not too much to ask for is it?

Nope, it’s not. I’m sorry you’re feeling low and alone. I send you good wishes and a cookie of the thought-that-counts variety (not everyone’s favorite flavor, I know).
I’d like to second the notion professed by the Peep (although we used to have a theory about marshmellow Peeps when I was a kid. You know why the blue Peeps are blue, right? It’s because they’re in a box wrapped in cellophane. THEY’RE SUFFROCATING!), and offer up cookies and words of encouragement.
Like you rock, and you make strangers you’ve never met smile wide as oceans. And believe it, ain’t nobody on this planet stranger than me.
Hope you’re having a little better Saturday,
Johnny A.
