No need for White-out by Susan

Miracles never cease. I actually figured out how to get to the page where I can write another post! Thank you all for being part of my learning curve. I was going to get all deep and philosophical but right now I'm enjoying my success and laughing a bit because of how scared I am of technology. Give me pen and paper and I'm all set. There is something satisfying about the feel of the sheet beneath a pen. I find the tactile closeness helps keep me focused.I love editing,too. When you cross something out it is gone but still visible. Maybe this is philisophical after all... I have been spending time at my high scool alumni Facebook site and am taking part in a coversation about the bullies who impacted so many of us growing up. For those who don't know me, I am a person living with Depression and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. The Depression has been life long but only recently was it recognized. I am in recovery but it has been a long, tough road particularely for the last eight years. Part of my time on the Black River has led me into places I would sooner not have gone and exploring the impact of being bullied was one of them. They were the gateway to a whole world of ugliness I am sad to say but on the upside I took my pen and scratched them out one by one.And it felt good to reclaim the part of me who was hurt so badly.
