When wanting just isn't enough

You want an ear.
A pair of welcoming arms to fall into.
A caring voice with reassuring words.
For them to ask you, truly ask you, how you are.
For them to notice that something is not right.
To be led back to the place where everything is.
You want what you see that so many others have.
You want at least that one thing to be normal.
You want a connection, on all the different levels.
For someone/anyone to understand.
To be 'got.'
To click.
To feel safe.
You want trust, in them and yourself.
You want to remember what self confidence is.
What happy feels like.
How it is to wake up and look forward to the day ahead.
To be sure in yourself and what you're doing.

It's not material or tangible.
You can't buy it, and even if you could it would be way more than you could afford.
But it's worth more to you than all of your stupid, useless possessions put together.
And more and more, it seems like it's something you can't have.

    hope you find that -- it's a wonderful thing to find, and i can assure you that you find it in the strangest of places - mine happens to be part of a different world to mine, its our connection that bridges the 13000km gap. so, all the best for you finding your very own penguin.
    oh, also, i like the upgrades you've made to the side bar - looks good.
