@Dreamy  Thank you, i really love that.  It probably says a lot about me the the line i identified with the most was "The broken soul who stared at the stars". 

 

I think we do tend to focus on helping others when we can't help ourselves.  It may because because it's out of our control, or we don't think we a worthy... or a bit of both.  Or do we just give up after trying so hard and so long to fix ourselves that we need to find an outlet now for all that care now that we're not giving it to ourselves?  I wonder if subconsciously, we go through so much without anyone helping us, it just becomes far too painful to see the same thing potentially happening to anyone else.  Like we can't fix ourselves, not from want of trying, but damned if we're going to watch someone else suffer.

 

I was reading the last few posts.  Are you feeling any better now?  I'll be here for while playing my game if you want to chat.
