I’m present
but absent
here
but gone away
body visible
spirit invisible
people talking
not listening
lost
private battle
need
to heal
hibernate

To hibernate is to give in, a good write..
Look at those Aussies they go on a walkabout to find themselves..
We are beautiful creatures, many try to push us down and make us feel as if we are inadequate, it is the tests that our Spirits personality has to pass to make us shine.
Never let anyone, or thing, tell you other than that you are a beautiful Spirit..
Walk with the joy of a child and the acceptance of the world around you.
It is better sometimes to listen as to speak you would have to join the sometimes rabble lol.
Take care of you out there, Yours Ian.T
PS:- I hope this is not too deep, it is the way I think sometimes..

There are a million reasons to believe in yourself,
So find more reasons to believe in others..

I hope things are going better for you now and at some time you can join us again as you are missed.
The sun is shinning out there so let the sun of thoughts shine on your Spirit,
Yours as always Ian.T
