Lost in the pain...

but clinging to hope.

Dear readers, it has been a while since I have written. I pray that you forgive me but the storms of life have reached new heights of ferocity. As the gales blow and the waters lash, I fight to hold my wheel and not allow the storm to toss me to and fro. I hope to pass through this storm, likely battered and bruised, possibly listing to one side or the other and almost certainly riding low in the waters for having taken on water from some sprung boards at the keel. If you see my ship limping it's way into your harbor, I beg that you give me shelter and aid until such time as new timbers have been shored up, the sprung boards have been battened down, re-pitched, new rigging and canvas obtained such that I will once again be sea worthy.
