I hope you are feeling better now, Charlotte. And to Valory and everyone else... the holidays can be tough.  I understand, for different reasons - I can never wait to get them out of the way. BIG hug to you all. | |

That will be me. I seriously doubt either one of my parents will ever make it over here so it will be me doing to the flying back home. Neither one of them has/will call me either.. they act like I moved to a different planet instead of country. It is hard some times especially when someone is sick back home.

It's not just you, I am doing this all the time, but then again I am quite complicated  . We need to "live" our emotions and feelings intead of repressing them, it's a healty and necessary thing .yes, I like to think so, but I have no-one to tell these things to. I have always had a very strong desire to go back to my motherland to live, the reason why I never became an Australian citizen. I could have gone back any time, but I went and started a "real life" for myself here, without thinking, and now I cannot go back. I have to deal with that daily. You aren't Australian? I never knew that! I remember when I was at university in Pittsburgh, getting on that plane at the end of a holiday to go back to school was the worst feeling.
I have your CD. I'm just waiting for one more item to arrive in the post before I send you a nice big two-month-late birthday present. | |

I think I know how you feel. My grandma is 98 and lives 1000 miles away. She has dementia so it's hard to call her, but even with memory loss, she's still a great person. I was suffering so much at one point because I didn't know if I'd ever see her again. I decided to volunteer at a local nursing home. It helped A LOT. It got my mind off missing grandma and also helped me feel like I could connect with her (or that feeling of loss within myself) by helping others who are in a similar situation to hers. | |

Right back at ya my friend.
I guess it helps to know that we are not alone in our life choices. I try to just deal with it and not feel too guilty. | |
