(Lines of my icon aren't mines)

I didn't read your last journal until just now. I don't know what's wrong with your dad, but you're making a good choice to be with him as much as you can. I hope you don't come back to this note just to cry over it, but your journal here really touched me in ways you can only imagine. I came from a family of seven. All there was from the start of MY life was me, my mom, my uncle, my grandmother, my grandfather and my two younger brothers. My uncle worked himself to death in 1999 at the young age of 42- he was my best friend. I watched a friend die of cancer- it was tough to watch, but I handled it well. My grandmother that raised me like a daughter because my mom didn't want me died at 65 from a bloodclot that got to her heart in 2006. She was in the hospital and they'd run the tests and were waiting on the results when she passed away. After she died I was sure grandpa was soon to follow and I wasn't terribly wrong... I was at home with my 3 year old when I got the call, the voice on the other end, a great aunt, "Your mother and Aarron (my 16 year old brother) are DEAD!" I fell to pieces. My heart shattered, my world crashed and all the anger and resentment and sorrow was almost too much- I thought I was going to die. That was the end of my world as I knew it. Gone, in an instant. My mother and I were angry with each other, we were still talking, but we were angry. Our conversations were always dry, stepping lightly on each word as if on egg shells... I'm still angry with her even now I suppose and she was so childish, so nieve- one of the reasons she never wanted me. A few months later, my grandfather (who was like a dad to me) went severly downhill. He'd been deteriorating after the death of his beloved wife, but I knew this heartbreak would claim him for certain, it was only a matter of time. He'd outlived his entire family save one brother and he'd outlived his wife, both his children and a grandson. It was literally killing him. I spent an entire month back home watching him die and it was one of the hardest things I ever had to do. My husband lost his job because we were there so long... 2007 claimed the rest of what was left of my seven-person family (save my other brother and I) in a matter of 6 months. Now my last brother has joined the infantry/artillery squad in the National Guard and they're talking about sending him to Iraq the 1st of the year. So much pain, so much heartache, so many tears... But you're right, there's beauty in the breakdown. The world as it is and not as you would have it becomes more clear than ever. Instead of imagining peace you find it, instead of make-believing people are good, you find that too. It's not as smooth as you would've imagined it, but it's there, in the smallest of things. It's in each tiny vein of a leaf, it's in the smell of the moments before the rain, in the sound of an instrument well played, a properly composed and perfectly balanced piece of art. It's in the sweet scent of roses and in the sparkling snow... My son's laugh lights up my world, the mere sound of his laughter makes me feel that everything is right with the world if even for but a moment in time. I am proud to say that when my grandparents spoke I listened, my only hope and fear now is that I remember... A lot of people get caught up in day to day life and silly dramas and they do forget. Bill collectors hound you and it consumes your waking thoughts- FUCK them. If you live for only you and have no hope then you are not alive at all. All you would be then is an empty shell, remnants of what was once a human being. Pain and sorrow is necessary, just as air and laughter and love are. "Paradise isn't Paradise unless all those that deserve it can find it." I can understand your troubles because I know them well, I hurt for you being abashed at this moment in time. From one loner to another; one thing all us loners have in common is our resilience and strength. Times come when we think we've lost it, hell, times come when we feel we've lost everything, but then we, who are logical in thought because as loners we have to be, wake up from that misconception and watch the sun rise. The pain doesn't go away, it remains and becomes a part of us and soon we learn to draw power from even that. We get up and trudge on, not unlike Kiba from Wolf's Rain, because we know there's still more to do, more to see, a goal we've yet to reach. Life may not be pretty ponies and fairy princesses, but we got some pretty cool stuff here in the RL too. As long as you know what you're looking for you're alright.

I Gandhi!

He was also the one that said, "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind." I've been using that one a lot lately with all the misdirected patriotism flying around these days...
