(oldest son who is 9 (nine!) has been in residential psych care sinece sept, we live with my dad who just had to go on disability but cant get his operation for months, among other non amusing life events). You are amongst the bloggers who can make me laugh and lighten up and see even my ridiculous situation with humor. It may have even kept me from some stupidly self destructive choices every now and again. If that's not meaningful, I dont know WHAT is. My own mom died a long time ago, so you are more than welcome to come up to CT and give a talk In my living room....... i'll even clean out the fridge. Boo on LTYM for not recognizing a talent like yours. Lisa G.

Nah. I think ...Grow up? You mean, leave Neverland?<br /><br />Nah. I think we just learn ever more clever ways of hiding our disappointment, frustration, and pain. That's the difference, right? When I throw a temper tantrum because I'm upset, people tell me to stop acting like a baby. That's when I remember, "Right. Being a adult is about finding different ways of expressing this."<br /><br />And sometimes I do.<br /><br />Often, however, I find I have to throw myself on grace. And remember, like an adult, that I am provided for, loved, and that being overlooked for this or that doesn't actually change that. Sure feels like it, though.<br /><br /> ~LukeLuke Holzmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07799632321310461828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29186394.post-2452731204283429902015-02-25T08:30:57.140-05:002015-02-25T08:30:57.140-05:00I adore you, SC and I know that you have EXACTLY w...I adore you, SC and I know that you have EXACTLY what it takes to get up on a stage and make 'em laugh. Writing funny is a trillion times harder than writing all feely, by the way. <br /><br />If it's any consolation to you, I have been mentally writing a post about jealousy and envy for several months now. You are totally not alone in the "not quite a grown up" club, my friend. It hits me more than I'd like to admit. <br /><br />P.S. I read through the Chosen blog and I am convinced that was more of a "omg she did WHAT??" sort of thing than anything else. Please don't give up. When you do get it, it's going to be so sweet. the_happy_hausfrauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07372773477740551839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29186394.post-32421033206252628042015-02-25T07:31:47.526-05:002015-02-25T07:31:47.526-05:00I totally get this.

No?<br />Well then, I think you are VERY mature about this situation! Disappointment is REAL... more real, even, than the Velveteen Rabbit. It's how you handle that disappointment that counts. <br />And yes, you were incredibly brave to audition. <br />Signed,<br />one of your many happy, satisfied readers ♥Karen (formerly kcinnova)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08965093440928340819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29186394.post-73380007283574868002015-02-24T22:02:23.534-05:002015-02-24T22:02:23.534-05:00I am sorry you didn't make it into the show. ...I am sorry you didn't make it into the show.
