Wh...First: WOW, a vary emotionally powerful piece.<br /><br />When people feel secure enough to let go, cry until they can't, vent, explain to anybody, it's a good thing. Not only is keeping things bottled up almost always a bad idea, but in the case of tears they can literally cleans you body of a lot of exes chemicals. Crying over something you have no control over until you have nothing left, is in some ways freeing, an admission that there is nothing left for you to do but be where you are. It can be nearly as hard to be there for someone at a time like that, as it is to be that person. Empathy drags up the closest thing it can find in your past and makes you feel it again. Grief is hard to feel. I admire you enormously for being there for those kids and for others like them, not to mention your own family.Poets Reachnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-587902609826926070.post-37475122901394625362011-05-15T05:02:17.781-07:002011-05-15T05:02:17.781-07:00I completely understand when you say you can't...I completely understand when you say you can't stop looking back - when everything seemed to make sense. I haven't seen my father since I was 7, and will never get to since he passed when I was 11. But despite not being able to go back in time to change how things played out, I now take the truth with a passionate fervor - and that's to be the most awesome dad my own father wasn't. <br /><br />You guys have inspired me so much to truly live out my life. You have no idea how many tears I've shed watching your videos - both happy and sad (but all in all hopeful). You guys represent the future I wish to achieve in my lifetime - to be with the man I love, and to raise my children in a loving and caring world. <br /><br />You have an amazing family, and amazing children - and I assure you these foster kids will remember their time with you, when they grow up, with a positive light that can never be replaced.Ketskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09572416377239959637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-587902609826926070.post-87391483064520333822011-05-14T16:47:06.656-07:002011-05-14T16:47:06.656-07:00Worded well.Worded well.Keyzerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06178062917415231417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-587902609826926070.post-87038686394958103412011-05-14T15:28:24.975-07:002011-05-14T15:28:24.975-07:00Very touching to read this.
