Dedicated to all who suffer from anxiety and panic attacks. I feel your pain…
My body shivers, at times, it quakes
Hour upon hour, never ending
I think, this must be a grave mistake
And life plays its game, quite offending
I try to be calm, breath in and out
But nothing is working for me
All I really want to do is to shout
Allowing the darkness to break free
But the darkness is my only hope
It comforts me, right to my core
Helping me find the right way to cope
When I’m wondering, what it’s all for

It seems if you comment on a lot of blogs, WP thinks you’re spamming, never taking into account that most of us follow thousands of blogs. Very naive on their part.

So they undermine the loyal users and let the scammers through? Can’t tell you how many times I’ve been followed by “sexy” somethings or businesses looking to promote.

Oh yes, gotta love those! Cindy Knoke said it best, though. She said they’re engineers, not writers, artists, photographers, etc. They really have no idea how we are as creative minds. They need to hire people to guide them in the right direction.

I prefer the dark, odd as it may seem, so it’s always a comfort for me.
