For a really long time I've semi-consciously waited for the next really bad thing to happen. Either personally or on a global level. It just seemed to me that every time I started to gain some kind of footing in my life that something would come out of nowhere to smack me down either physically or emotionally. So I just stopped trying to do

Debilitating depression is no more to be ashamed of than a headache. Not a moral failing by any means. So I'm glad you're giving that up. And glad to hear from you. Believe it or not, I was thinking about you this morning, trying to figure out if I could do anything for you. I'm cleaning out my house for remodeling. Do you still need toiletries and all? Is there a list of things you want? What else?

This message meant a lot to me and I really appreciated it the day that you left it. I have a hard time though sometimes accepting other people's kindnesses so I didn't know quite what to say.

I'm without medicine and a counselor right now so I'm not in my best head space to meet someone. I sorta thought that if you gave me toiletries we might have to get together and I didn't know quite how to handle that.

Yes, If you still have stuff to get rid of I would be happy to take it. Anything beauty or hygiene related would be lovely. I understand if you've already gone throuh your stuff and have gotten rid of things.

Maybe it would be good to set a goal to just meet you sometime and have coffee, it would be fun and challenging for me. I'm thinking mid October, what dou you think?

I would love to meet you, but you have to do what is right for you. Maybe for a start we can just sit on opposite sides of a coffee shop and smile warmly at each other. :-D

Honey, I cam just pop stuff in the mail. You don't have to meet me to get it. Or I can give it to Neil or whatever. The last thing I want is for this to be a source of stress for you. That's the opposite of myintention, so keep that in mind.
