Often
I think I am doing okay. I am, aren't I? I mean I bounced back fine from all that.
Recently I joined Facebook, which has been good. I hooked up with a lot of people I hadn't seen in years and have re-established contact with a great many of them. It has also allowed people to find me and contact me.
The one that is throwing me is the good friend of my friend Carlo. I haven't spoken to him since I left Assumption. I tried to email him about a year after Carlo died, but it didn't go anywhere. It was at the urging of a friend I did that, she thought it would help me deal with it a bit. I think it was too soon and also, I didn't have his email right.
So I just sent him an email in reply to the second email he sent me. He expressed an interest in seeing and contacting me. I would love to see him. I told him so and then I started to cry. I don't know that I wouldn't fall apart when I saw him.

You may fall apart when you see him, I think that's okay. You can't help feeling what you feel. You don't just "get over" something like what you've experienced. Unfortunately, it can stay with you for a long, long time. Maybe meeting with your friend will add another dimention of support for both of you? My thoughts and support are with you friend, take care of yourself.
it's nice to hear you're catching up with old friends. this all sounds good, go with it :) i've always liked tears. they give us a sense that we still feel and that's a very good thing. falling is often followed by getting up again :)i like that part.
nice to see you bouncing around the web again. i hope the meeting holds healing for you.
