Tall Tales trials and tribulations learning that sometimes the truth isn't pretty

...My friend Anna wrote me a nice comment in my article last week that just stuck in my mind which isn't

easy to do when one has a limited amount of mind to work with.So thank you Anna for inspiring me to try to write this article

I discovered something about myself on my long journey it is so easy to become that cyber person you wish so much you were.

some other internet friends I've made during my recovery Have a word they use for people such as I am. They call this syndrom Spiraling.Ihave discovered how true this is cause just as water spirals down a drain, We sometimes lose ourselves

by using that shadow person who reflects what we want to see in the minds mirror.Now I would love to sit here and say this is just some recent thing and due to my stroke. but as I said the truth isn't pretty but just like the mirror what you see is what you get. those flickering shadows will eventually take form and shove that truth in your face. Won't they Truth Sleuth.I once told you I would admit when I was wrong so here it is the truth that person from another time and place was a fraud, and you had him and me pegged all along.I've wanting to tell you this for a long time because even though I disagree with you in politics I do respect you for your honesty and search for the truth. I offer a long over due apology I hope you accept.

I have another friend Karen who calls me the shadow and she too also shines a little too much light on the man of shadows. I have long thought about calling myself Shadow Man in my profile as a author name. cause like my friend soovivers says there are days when I'm not sure of who I am or have become. There are times I feel I'm crawling out of a well and keep falling back in. I at times like this, realize that without the love of my friends and family I wouldn't survive at all.

Hawk - I'm so glad to see you on here. Our lives are not easy roads to travel and many times we hit a pothole. But just as you are doing now we pull ourselves out and continue on our journey. Each day is sometimes a challenge but I am very happy to see that you are not letting it get you down.

When we have our Internet friends we are never alone. There is always someone to talk to and someone who cares. The odd part is many times we do not even know we are being missed until someone stops by and asks where we've been.

Don't let life get you down because there is light at the end of the tunnel. I wish you to have a sunny day!
