Re: Loneliness
@tonys beautiful swaying of the soul, moved by your words, as always 🙂🌺
I was reading some short stories I wrote before I received an acquired brain injury (I was tidying up a bookshelf and discovered them sleeping there) and realised much of the ebb and flow of language as an emotion has gone from my brain. I didn’t recognise my own words but for the neat handwriting I used to have before the shake induced by damage.
This three dimensional piece of writing of yours which you’ve kindly shared has brought a rare glimpse into a world mostly closed off behind walls that were built the day I was injured.
For this I owe you a heartfelt thanks 🙂🌺🦩

Re: Loneliness
Hello @PinkFlamingo ,, I would not be so sure about those walls you speak of. I read between the space of your words and wonder if all that is needed is one deep breath, to rekindle your embers.
A few years ago, the long, sleep sickness, had me buttressed, to a, time and confidence, deep freeze.
I, like you, have those dusty boxes, upon boxes of, pre apocalypse paper. And now its a constant
battle not to give in and reach for them. But post apocalyptic work is a must, and I so hope you... try.
I have no idea really of proper spelling, grammar, average bag of words. But still, I send paper kites
every day to anyone who'll take them. Funny thing is. . . the screwed up ball of papers I throw in the bin, is often the rubbish they want more of. Mate . . . I would give, Anything... for your word bag.
You won't forgive me for saying this, but I feel it is incumbent upon you to share at least some of the dust from your stories with us. I have a dude that I owe half a dozen short stories too, and mate..
I shouldn't laugh but, I still haven't finished them. Told him a month, then blocked his number. He will, get them but I don't have your skill at narrative. I'm 4 dimension guy, and unless you get lucky
with someone wanting lyrics for rap or crap tunes, its a ticket to weight loss.. Please make use of your gifts @PinkFlamingo . .
Hey @Oaktree How's yours coming along. You had a peach of an Idea. Hope your into it. Gravy.
I haven't forgotten. Just have less than zero time lately. @greenpea .. You sound like you shed your grey Autumn leaves and already have spirited buds of spring about you. You'll have a beaut winter between, to be sure my friend.
@StuF I'm going to wish you the best birthday now, just in case I miss you on you special day.
I have another "thing" to attend to this weekend, so I just say now. Have a beauty my friend.
Its a privilege knowing you. Come back safe.
@TAB all that excess brain clutter. Channel it all into those studies mate. Best wishes .
@Glisten the solicitor.. ? She sounds like a Tasmanian devil, You hire her..
@SmilingGecko .. Got Your letter on my wall n I'm working. . .Hard to it.. Hope you and @Historylover
@Emelia8 @ENKELI @LoveandHope @Meowmy @Shaz51 and @Tilz thanks Tilz...
@PeppiPatty @cloudcore eye of the storm, just magic.. @saturnzoon and all the other
Street injured fauna, that come to heal in this place.. find peace and kindness .
I'll be a bit sparce for a week or 3 . My lazy ass is actually working .. bye gentle souls..
@Jynx Is a favour asked twice, once to often. A Spare room at the motel . . ? Bless you mate.. tonys..

Re: Loneliness
Oh I'm freaking out today - but just read your post -
Iv had acquired head injury - multiple scars through my brain, non essential tremor in my hands, sometimes through body, get very overwhelmed easily.
I do feel isolated because for many years I didn't understand why I go on a tangent all the time while speaking.
@PinkFlamingo did you work before your head injury or study ?? Please don't answer if I'm triggering you.... 🌹🌿

Re: Loneliness
Hey @PeppyPatti ,
Thank you for sharing. I'm sorry you have experienced this difficulty in your like. It sounds like the ABI was quite challenging for you as you didn't understand its effects.
Are there things that help you navigate life a bit better?
