Karla I know of this...it hits a lot of
people..just lean on God and your friends
here at the Den..that is not a "friend"
kick it in the butt....and put a big
smile on your face and write...love to you..

Make the time longer, and a do not allow that "friend" back into your life, Karla, you have better friends out here, always willing to talk, always willing to hear, just as your twin is so much better than us all, talk to her, she will hear...Peace thru a Sisters Love, Ed & Rufuz

I have a friend named Depresion too. He has a severe weight problem. Sometimes he's huge and near crushes me and others he can fit right next to me with ease.
Great Write.

Sounds like a 'friend' you don't need, Karla. Are you sure you want to invite back into your life? Some 'friends' are really 'enemies in disguise.'
