Was actually intending to write a personal email to this friend to thank him for his kind words during my strange, sudden, emotional outburst this afternoon… but in the end, I thought its better that I do it public since he reads this space and hmm… there’s obviously more of a need to show a person’s nice side than his less than perfect side right?
The back ground story is actually quite obvious. The past week has been a difficult week for me, as those of you who follow the ups and downs of the posts have seen. Well, today I reached the end of my threshold of tolerance and finally cried.
I’m just so glad I cried. For the water-works out there and the tough men who have no need for tears, you’ll never understand how hard it is to be unable to release the pent up weird mix of emotions without the use of tears.
It’s just such a relief.
Ever since the tough week started, I’ve been trying to be strong and psyching myself in thinking that I’ve made a good, rational decision. Well, a large part of me still thinks that it is a good, rational decision but you know how the heart is an independent entity, located a far far 30cm away from the brain…
So anyway, thanks L for the kind words of encouragement even though you didn’t have to. (Even though now I feel kind sheepish to have even msged u…dunno what got over me) At the end of the day, what you say still inspires me.
Thanks to Fuzzybunny too, whose sarcastic comments brought a smile to my face the other day.
Grateful for tears and grateful for friends…

Though I said that I won’t be posting, I thought it’ll be better if I put another entry up to let you know that I’m much better now. Thanks for all who are concerned.
