JulieH,

I am limping at present JulieH, so forgive me if this comes out all jumbled and clumsy.

I felt compelled to write something to you today, after reading V's thread and your insightful post to her and I wanted to tell you just how fabulous you really are.

There are a number of woman on this board whose attributes I so aspire to and you Julie are one them. You have a clarity of mind and word, you are able to get to the nub of something so quickly, respectfully and balanced. You are poised and smart and emotionally intelligent. But your quitely strong minded.

I waffle and wallow in my thoughts and life alot of the time. Consistently lost in a sea of emotion. I reach around blindly in the emotional dark. I feel marshmellow and weak constantly. See I would love to have your clarity of mind and spirit.

It is likely unkind and unempathatic of me to not fully acknowledge your pain and vulnerablity in this. Because you are mendering through places that likely scare the bejeezes out of you. I do I see and feel it. But guess I only ever look at your sitch and see you overcoming.

Please don't ever forget just how fabulously smart and wonderful you are.

I am sorry if this post is badly timed. I guess all I say is, I want to be like you when I grow up.

Much love

JellyB xxx
