Dear Mom,

Yes, you've put on some weight. They told you the chemo would do that. Yes, your face is a little puffy- the chemo is doing that, too. But y'know? I didn't notice either of those things, until you mentioned them. I noticed your eyes- your eyes are different. You're still the joyful, energetic, strong woman you always were... but this chemo is taking your vibrancy, and is leeching it from you. Your eyes, beautiful as they are, were dulled, muted. It was harder for me to see your eyes that first time, than it was for me to sit with you through your latest chemo consult. It was harder for me to try to photograph them looking dead like that, than it was for me to feel the hardened veins in your arm and leg... and to hear about how the new chemo will make your finger and toe nails fall off. Seeing your bald head... that was nothing. It was easy- you have a lovely, bowling-ball perfect head. But your eyes... they speak volumes. They speak of your sadness at your appearance. They speak of your exhaustion. They speak of your fighting, and of how tired you're getting of fighting. They speak of how you want it to be over, but that you must persevere. Your eyes show the battle you're fighting, even when your smile doesn't. Even when you raise a glass and toast the season and hug your kids, and dance with your lover, and laugh with all of us... your eyes aren't fully with us... which means you aren't fully with us.

This is not a criticism, beautiful mother. This is simply something I've noticed- this is simply an observation... and it is a vocalizing of what I held in all weekend.

I love you so utterly much. I love you so much I can't even articulate it. You are the most beautiful woman I know- inside and out. You are the most sweet, caring, kind person I know. You are amazing- you are so full of fight, even if you haven't the passion you once had. You inspire me- you give me perspective. You give me so much joy. I couldn't have spent too much time with you these last few days- I haven't seen you for months...

I am SO lucky that you are my mother.

God was good to me, when he gave me you.

*hugs Jade close*

I know exactly what you're feeling. I was 12 when Dad died after a 5 1/2 year battle with lung cancer. I watched as this vibrant, strong man changed and its such a helpless feeling. Your love for your mom is palpable through your words. Your love for each other will be the strength when it seems you cant find any other source
 
Dear X, Y, Z, and all the rest of the alphanumeric universe

No matter how I try, I will never, ever understand women.

Ain't it great?!?!


LOL

See comments like that don't help at all!!!

Trust a Dom to complicate things by adding in more letters *sigh*

Kiddo, if men and women really, truly understood each other, the race would die out within the next 100 years.
 
Dear X

Um, its because they have problems with their chromosomes *nods* In that they don't have the right ones ..........yup, I am almost sure thats what my Master said :p
 
Dear X...

I'm fucking sorry! What more do you want me to say?!

Dear X

Forget her an go ON with your life! There are more fish in the sea so to speak so why waste your time hoping she'll come back? You've done nothing wrong and only need to open your eyes to see those who truly care for you!
 
Dear J,

Please dont do it. You didnt get you kids a single Christmas gift, your broke. Dont you dare go get a $100.00 plus hair cut today.

I'll bury you.
 
Dear X
I know that we, Fi and I, have not always been the most spend thrifty of people, but we have gotten So much better lately with the exception of this month and trips to see our respective OSOs... but You complain endlessly that you are broke... that you get no help with anything in the house from your fiance... that it's one un-ending drama and how you could not afford to donate $5 to a charity for breast cancer...

but in the last few months... you have brought home cats, a dog that you now wish you did not have, and a Wii.

Please stop telling me how you wish you had money

At least when i was broke and spending money i didn't have i didn't complain. i knew i was fucking up
 
Dear x,

even though it was a hypothetical scenario, you have no idea what your reaction meant to me. It warmed me through, knowing that you liked the idea too *grin*
As for the veto stuff, I am so very excited to start that. I have wanted to give that up for ages and am so glad that you would love it too.
Thankyou for giving me the opportunity to tell you my ideal.

Talking today has been wonderful.

love
Me

Are you sure that was what he said??

This thread is called 'Dear X,' maybe it is because the X chromesome has more balls (so to speak) lol
 
Dear J,

You did it, a nice new haircut, a new apartment.

Oh, and no Christmas presents for the girls, 2 months down on the car payment, a $400.00 cell phone bill, the car insurance is past due and its "your turn" as you put it, for the child care. I hope you remember that its the holidays and you will be paying twice as much for the day care.

By the end of January you will be broke and possibly without a car. I hope its what you wanted.

By the way, I still love you for some stupid reason. Don't hurt our children.
 
Dear D
I should have held your hand. I know that now. In your weakest moment I wasn't there for you. I stood there too lost in my own anger to see that you were truly hurting. There were many things I wanted to say to you and never got the chance, I still beat myself up because I don't know your favorite color. I wish I could've told you why but I know you wouldn't have listened, but I still beat myself over it. I know towards the end you were a different person or maybe it was just the morphine but all I could think of is that you got off easy for all the shit you put everybody through. Al is royally fucked up, put I think maybe he'll get through it, he's getting better. Your other son is going through a rough time, but not all of it's your fault I can say that now. H is so much better now she's graduating now and she's moving up in life it's going to be good. She started crying because she wished she could've called you up and told you, yeah she's still a fluff ball on the inside. I don't know whats happening to me now all I think about is how I should have done more to ease your pain but a part of me still thinks you deserved to suffer more than you did, maybe I'll get over it with time maybe not. I miss having cigarettes with you and talking politics in the car and arguing in Spanish about whether or not that tree in our backyard was a mango tree or apple tree (it was mango).

Missing you,
cucaracha
 
Dear T.,

You know perfectly well that you are my subbie-crush. So, since you're in the area, I'm going to do something really unDommely and damn near beg you to spend to New Year's Eve with my friends and me.

I know you're like me and have this "oh, I get nervous around people I don't know" problem, but you know me. I'll be there. I really, really want to spend tomorrow night with you. I hope you'll let me talk you into it.

~R.
 
Dear Mum,
You know, when you ask me why I don't seem so excited about the prospect of a dinner out and I tell you I'm a bit depressed, FFS don't say, "Me too."
You have the emotional stability of a rock and you know my meds are in wild flux within my body right now. I need some support, not that you've ever given it in this arena, but lacking that could you just keep fucking quiet about it? If I was as "depressed" as you are, I'd think all was right with the world.
I've given up on having you support me.
I've given up on having you understand it - or really, truly believe I can't control it.
But I don't think I'll ever give up on you just shutting your mouth for once.

Phew - I feel a little better.

I thought they had the chromosomes but then the leg on the X broke and became a Y... and that's when the problems started....

/flees very far and very fast
 
Dear X...

Sometimes...like right now...i really wish you weren't so far away.

That is all.


To the moon and back...
Me
 
Dear X and y,

I had a lovely time last night. It was a pleasure to meet your friends.

See you soon, y.
 
Dear M,

Thankyou for today. For surprising me and making me so happy.
Thankyou for the permanent smile that adorns my face. It's there because of you.
Thankyou for loving me as I was. You made me feel beautiful :heart:

Always yours, owned.

Me x
 
A new year has come
as empty as the other one
nobody to say hi
I'm just lonely and sad
trying not to loose my mind
and not to think of you that much, but I can't.

A new year has come
as empty as the other one
nobody to say hi
I'm just lonely and sad.
there's nothing to be done
I gess next year will be just like that.
so fucking pathetic as I am.
Don't worry about me I'll be fine,
seeking some joy at the bottom of a glass
or in the warm arms of my bed.


Whoever wrote this I understand them so much........ ~sigh~




Dear X,

I am thinking of you. The New Year aint really my favorite day, for many reasons.... I just wanna tell you how I wish you were here with me right now. Thank you for everthing!! :heart:

love you
me :kiss:
