I can't believe how lovely you all are.

I recently deactivated my facebook account. I only have "friends" on it that I actually know - I don't collect passing acquaintances to bump up numbers. And I don't usually post status updates on me feeling blah. But just after New Year I did post something about how devastated I felt about two people close to me (unnamed, but meaning Trish and Derek) sticking a knife in me over Christmas, about how abandoned I felt, how I felt the floor being pulled out from under me, how unstable I felt, not knowing any more who I could trust. I got a lot of there-there comments, but nothing as warm and enveloping as this. I feel so grateful to be part of a community like the Cellar. I hope one day I will be able to meet some of you. If you ever come to Australia, you are welcome here, and I mean that sincerely.
