Last night, I learned that another acquiantance of mine had attempted to end her own life. I have know far too many people who chose to kill themselves.
I wish I could say that I don't get dark feelings. I do. All kinds of terrible ideas swirl around in there. Yes, I'm seeing a therapist.
I have given up on the idea that I can make eternal promises. That model of decision-making did more harm than good.
But I can make this promise: I will be good today. I can't promise a thing about tomorrow. Maybe I won't be strong enough to handle whatever trouble finds its way into my life tomorrow. But today, I can make it. I can make it to the end of today. I promise.
Thanks for giving me a forum to announce this.
