It's been, shit, about 7 months since I was here and this is what I found...
Who's the anonymous chicken shit who fucking posts that I think I'm better than everyone because I have a boy is the reason why I hadn't been going out of my way keeping in touch with all of my friends as often as I should while I was what? Taking care of my terminally ill mother and then burying her? This is why I don't trust people. And all of the right people knew that those were the circumstances in my life, so that comment was made out of cruelty and mean spirit.
Current mood: solemn
This is a little bit heavy
I wanted to post this here, because I have no words for any of you out there, to explain why I haven't been in touch, why I find it hard to pick up the phone or write a quick message to say hi or see how you're doing. This is an excerpt from a book that I'm reading. It is the author referencing a piece of literature about grief:
...Persons under shock of genuine affliction are not only upset mentally but are unbalanced physically. No matter how calm and controlled they may seemingly be, no one can under such circumstances be normal. Their distributed circulation makes them cold, their distress makes them unstrung, sleepless. Persons they normally like, they often turn from. No one should ever be forced upon those in grief, and all over-emotional people, no matter how near or dear, should be barred absolutely. Although the knowledge that their friends love them and sorrow for them is a great solace, the nearest afflicted must be protected from anyone or anything which is likely to overstrain nerves already at the threatening point, and none have the right to feel hurt if they are told they can neither be of use or be received. At such time, to some people companionship is a comfort, others shrink from their dearest friends...
I know that I've withdrawn, but I still think about all of you.

Wow, it's been this long since I've checked my LJ and I come back to find this comment... This post was about my mother having died in Dec 05. Everyone who is close to me knows that, so who chalks my depression and lack of contact up to having a boyfriend? Cleary not a true friend.
