An act of kindness that lifted my spirits.
Thank you for my star. Perhaps the person who donated for me is someone who knows how low I've been feeling the past two months - the lowest months of my whole life. Your little act of kindness was like a beam of light in a dark, dark place.

I know that I have lots more difficulties to face the coming months. One of the hardest parts is coming in less than 10 days. I know that I have an ocean of tears left to cry.

But logging on to DU, and seeing that someone had bought me a star, made me feel that, somehow, I will make it through. It's really silly and childish the extent to which it touched me. Thank you so very much.

I just wanted you to know.

2. Have a hug, Dawg
:hug:

I don't know what your upcoming trouble is, but remember that someone is always awake at DU and most likely willing to listen if there's something you need to talk about. As the song goes "you've got a friend."

And thanks to that someone who starred Dawg!

3. My dear dawg...
How wonderful someone did this for you...

Vent all you want...we're here for you.

I hope whatever's happening in less than 10 days will be over in a moment, and then you'll be able to go forward and away from it, quickly.

Letting something like someone buy you a star is hardly silly or childish...it shows your humanity.

:hug:

4. And as a reply to your secret admirer I'd like to just say...
BACK OFF BITCH I SAW HIM FIRST!

Actually this is pretty darned cool.

Glad you're feeling the glow.

:hug:

6. Oh come now...
...you wouldn't want to wake-up one morning to find yourself sandwiched by beautiful women who were merely using you for your body to slake their wanton lusts.

Would you?

9. I'm pretty much a one-woman man.
But if I'm gonna have to be single, maybe that's something I should try. I'd probably feel really sad afterwards, but it would do wonders for my self-confidence! :rofl:

7. I'm sorry you're going through such a difficult..
time. I hope things get better for you very soon! I heard a quote recently, I'm not sure who said it, but I like it...

Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, but learning to dance in the rain.

So get nekkid, and try to dance! :hug:
