Sigh , I feel so blue today
I feel like I am an Alien in this world , that their is no place I feel accepted enough in ,a place that I can call home . In a long time I did not have the urge to break down and cry , today I feel that urge.

sorry for venting , you probably don't need to be bummed out.

4. We've ALL felt disconnected -- some more and more often than others.
.
.
.
.
.
.
You have felt this way before.
.
.
.
.
.
I KNOW this.
.
.
.
.
.
You will find your way back once again.
.
.
.
.
.

You've already started. You have come to a place where you are accepted that you can call home.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
You and I BOTH know this.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Relax. Breathe. Have just a little faith and patience.

5. Me too, you're not alone.
Hang in there, find humor in the small things...it will pass soon.

6. Feeling alien is this world?....and why is that a bad thing?...
Sometimes the perceptions that you think are taking you down a dark path...are the ones that set you free on a new path of light !

Trust your mind and seek the light it is pointing out to you, in the form of this feeling of alienation. This could be a day of great change for you. The begining of a better phase of your life.

Peace....Rags

8. You did capitalize Alien and that's a sign of good self esteem.
Kidding, kind of.

But try to remember, something may just happen soon to turn everything around.

I could happen when you wake up tomorrow.

This probably won't last.

No one stays down forever.

Just be good to yourself and remember your friends here.

Cheers.

9. Sometimes giving in to the urge to cry is the best thing you can do
Seriously...it purges a lot of what we've been holding in and gets us on a much firmer footing to turn things around.

I don't know what you're going through or what is making you blue, but I can share that in the last year and a half, I've hurt more than I have in all of the previous years of my life combined.

And the friends I love and who love me in return have consistently told me one thing:

"You are not alone."

That may not help you right now, but it's helped me. Not immediately...many times I've had friends say that to me and my immediate reaction is "yeah, right."

But I can't even imagine where I would be right now if it weren't for my friends.

Cry if you need to.

It's OK. We have your back.

:grouphug:
