I have added a new Question to the 'Question' tab, and some text and an image to the 'Models' tab.
I have an awful lot of questions at the moment and not all of them are being answered. They certainly cannot all be uploaded here, which is a shame really, as a burden shared is a burden halved. Maybe this is why I have been so immersed in the model making. Vigorously building this or that out of card, plastic, sand, and glue.
Activities keep the mind busy and deflect attention away from the unwelcome thoughts that so often intrude upon us. I have a very good friend who is suffering badly with mental ill health at the moment. I can't really say to him; "I know how you feel". The comment would be inappropriate as the bottom line is with these invisible illnesses; none of us know how another person is coping or the impact or events that pushed them into where they now find themselves. All we can do is to be there to support our friends in whatever way is relevant to the circumstances. For that reason I would like to thank those that from time to time, support me. One thing that I have noticed about the dark days is that you can inadvertently let your friends slip by. With that in mind it was lovely to hear from Simon the other evening. Good friends keep in touch and don't have a balancing of the books system. It doesn't matter if the other person has been silent, they still pick up and try. It was nice to catch up with Simon so I shall now try to meet up with another friend called Adam.
I shall also continue to ring the various telephone numbers of someone else and hope that at some point he picks up as well. Yes it can be dark, but it doesn't have to be lonely.
