It's a funny thing,
And a difficult, unwieldy tool i think.
But it's where my mind goes.
When my mind goes off a million scattered directions at once - which is unhelpful, and unproductive, and dangerous to my overall state of being.
When the need is palpable.
I completely understand this post. When I am feeling sad, unfocused or stressed I need it, I ask for it and I sometimes I cry when I can't have it. Yes, I cry because I am not getting the pain I need to make my cry. I understand.

mouse - it's clear to us too that there are really good reasons to have a lot of different ways to communicate this kind of thing between us, i think we just haven't got those figured out so much yet. Thanks.

ReplyDeleteNodding at both dancing barez - on crying when the need to cry is not met,
and Mouse- oh, much quicker to be sure!
I guess I'm not alone in this. :-)
Elysia,
Deletethanks. I think there are a lot of us really. It's such an odd thing to step back and look at, but so real and almost overwhelming at the time.
Yes.
