I am so very sorry for that. <br /><br />The truth is that is suffer from chronic depression. It's a mental illness which has been part of my life since I was in my teens (about 50 years ago). Sometimes it is not too bad; sometimes it is terrible; sometimes it's in-between. It limits what I can do, because sometimes I cannot even think clearly, and don't have energy to do anything. Lately I've been in that in-between stage.<br /><br />Thanks, again.<br /><br />Blessings and Bear hugs.Rob-bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00171692478879522588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-511152153612409978.post-10470774830962832232014-04-24T11:05:54.809-06:002014-04-24T11:05:54.809-06:00Lovely Poem!
