getting through it -- 2003-01-17 A good friend chatted online with me today, and an old friend called me tonight. His voice was soothing and calming, and he called me because he read my last entry and wanted to make contact. I had forgotten that he had the url, in fact most people who read my diary have never met me, which is generally why I feel free to be so honest. But there are a few people that I know (in real life) that read it, and I heard from both of them today. Thank you friends. I am feeling a bit stronger tonight. I went out with Marnie for a nice long walk in Pippy Park on the cross-country ski trails. It was snowing and we just walked and breathed the cold crisp air. She didn't ask what was wrong and I didn't offer. We just spent the afternoon in each other's company and her presence, as a friend, was reassuring. Tonight I talked to Marje as well, and as usual she is my saving grace. I am so lucky to have her in my life. Without a doubt I would have cut last night if I hadn't called her. One-thirty in the morning and she talked to me for over an hour, calming me down, telling me that I was going to get through it. And because of her love, I think I just might.
