    I have  found  myself  as  of  late  at  odds with  thoes  here  i  love  and  with thoes  around me.  like  everyone  that  comes  to this  site  I  am  not  all that  differnt when it  comes to  beeing  stressed or pressured. we  all  at  times  get  cault  up in other  members lives  as well as our own.  I admit  I do try  to  help thoes  here  seaking  advise on issuse . today  i  had  a chance  to  be alone  with my issues  deep  in the  wilderness  of  Northarn Ontario. I  found  myself standing  out  on a  dock in a  very  deep  lake  looking down trying to  see bottom. what  did  I see  you  ask  ?? On a  sunny  day  It  was a refection of a  person . who  waas this  person ??  I know  I should say  it was  me , but  it was  Not !!  It was the  person that  has  been here  and has  been falling  out  of  touch with  thoes  I  care about . being a  person that  grew up  in rural country  then  moved  in to  the city.  i  sometimes  forget  where  I  came from and  who  I am .  today  i  had  spent  a  few  hours on my  own at a  northern  lake  amungs  some  very  tall   white and red  pine  trees . thers  alot  of  gray  ganite stone there  as well and  is at  times  very  quet .  it  is places  like this that  reminds me  of  how  busy  life  can be  and  how we  can  loose  focus. Ive  though about  the person i seen in that refection and  I did nt  like  who they  where and what they  had  become. i seen a  person that  had alot  of  innner emoinal  pain and  anger cause  by a  relationship that went  wrong. I  speek  for  myself  cause  Im someone  that  never  been in this  kind  of  inner  pain befor.  i too  am like  a  "Black  bear" that  never  found  him  or  her self    cault  in a  trap and  dont  know what to  do . As  we  are  caught  we  like  bears  "lash out  " at  who  ever   what  ever  is  near . we  hurt thoes that try  to  help and  in the  end  we  feel  bad.  this  reflection  has  helped  me  see  there  is  a  problem and  it all so showed me that I should  "dressed ....lol "
