I've been away for a while because of hard times finacially.  I'm doing ok now and I'm back online.  I see that C2C has a lot more stuff to do like sharing\journaling.  I think it's great!  I like the choices of themes for the journal, it's so cool.  Makes me feel like a kid again.  Well, since it's almost Halloween I thought I'd pick accordingly of a theme.  I hope all my friends and whoever reads here has a fun but safe Halloween.  I'm involved with a therapy group that will have a Halloween party this Saturday.  This group is for the mentally challanged in the sense that there are many mental problems involved in the group.  A lot of us(yes me too) have issues with family, social, personal, and abuse(both physical & emotional).  We get together for classes which help,teach, and give us the tools needed to cope with our problems.  One big thing is gathering together instead of isolating ourselves from others.  Just being with people who have different issues is sharpening us for everyday duties which most of us find excruciating to perform.  There are people who attend who have no family over the holidays.  We are a family to each other.  There are all ages and mental capacities.  Those who can, take turns working during a party, dinner, or special occasion.  I feel privileged to be a part of this.  I've been helped by this group and I still attend to give back to others who come in new all the time to be helped.  They always have a place to go with friends to be with and talk to.  This gives all of us the feeling of being wanted.  So many abused and neglected in their youth need to feel wanted and loved.  The world is really not equipped to give us this security.  It seems to me a place where love lives all the time.  God bless us all.
