DH:
What you wrote it exactly how I feel about my life. I have felt this way since "fading"....well, even a bit before because I only get to see my children once a year. (I was at least a MOM...but with distance feel like that title has been stripped). I feel I have no identity now.
I constantly think about WHY am I here?
I guess the only thing I can come up with is this:
I try to help others when they go thru painful things in their life. (after all, I have a lot of traumas I have faced since I was a child, and I am living proof that you can get thru them and life can improve). Yeah, some of my friends call me "Dr. Codeblue"...lol
Love your neighbor as yourself. Be kind to everyone...Make someone "smile"....
Those things may seem insignificant to others, but life is about showing love and being loved. If you want love, you have to give it too!!!
