Dear Band,
Today was a rough day. Today a lot of little things piled up and smacked me down, and I wasn't sure it was worth it to climb back up and stand tall, yet again.
So I was sitting here, wallowing a little bit and throwing myself one rocking pity party (it involved large amounts of Eating Mah Feelings. Even had it's own depressing soundtrack), when I clicked through to the site today.
Today, I went back through my profile, back to the times where I've shared bits and pieces of my story. The same bits and pieces that were overwhelming me (again), and I read your comments. Again.
When I shared those stories, your comments were important. They boosted me up, and reminded me that I'm not alone. They eased worries and comforted me. They encouraged me to keep on going, step by step.
And today, weeks and months later, your comments were still important to me. They still had that power to inspire me to take a deep breath, acknowledge that today sucked, but that tomorrow is a brand new chance to be all Eye of the Tiger.
So thank you, The Band. Thank you for reading, thank you for caring and, most of all, thank you for taking the time to make sure I knew you heard and cared.
xoxo,
Jen ThePsychobabble
