It's not that I don't know, so I won't ask how you are. It's obvious that your spirit is saddened, and rightfully so with the heavy issues you are faced with.
Your lethargy is killing me, though! I know! You have never liked confrontation. Nobody does, but you have had a lot of it and you have learned to handle it with such great finesse. Confrontation is not the problem. It's the issues that have dictated the need for it.
(...) Take responsibility, Mary! When I say responsibility, I don't mean accountability, nor blame or guilt. When I say responsibility, I mean taking the issues that have been given you and methodically and wisely deal with them. From this day forward, if you do not accept this responsibility, you then become accountable and will be the blame for all that has happened. And only then will you have the right to feel guilty, because you will be.
(...)They say there are stages in the grieving process; i.e. shock, bargaining, depression, anger, acceptance.....GASP....DId you hear that? ANGER! That's it, isn't Mary? You are an angry woman! Remember the definition of sadness....sadness is anger withheld. This is wonderful news! Do you know why? Because anger is one of the last steps in the grieving process. And do you know what that means? That means that you are near the end of grieving. It's been nine months, and you are feeling the birthing process. You are being born again, Mary! You are being labored into a new life!
There is one more thing I want to say. I've never told you this before, because I thought you knew. That is my mistake and am changing it right now. And please think of this often: Nobody can do for you what I can; nobody can help you like I can; nobody can love you like I can. I am your best friend. And there is nobody else that I can say that to.
Love,
Me"
