Emotions

I miss Jim.

Jim, I'm sorry for taking you for granted.

Sophia,

Isn't it a conundrum? People you once knew who have broken all ties of communication. And thus may as well not even exit if they don't communicate? You can tell yourself that there are 6.7 billion people in the world, and one can't communicate with them all, but it still hurts thinking about those who have left. One has to be a little tough is all I can decipher from it. And make new friends.

jim has been missing since september

several people, even people from other countries, have written to me and asked...

where's jim?

i saw jim spiraling downwards, lost in his own mind, or maybe tortured by mischievous spiritual beings posing as angels

then i saw jim disappear

when i called him, he didn't seem to recognize me

when before he would have even claimed me as his own daughter

no one can ever replace jim

there is always room in my heart for more friends

but the place in my heart where jim resides is his even if his physical presence seems to be missing

Sophia,

I don't know what to tell you except that you've got to get past this stuff. Just tough it out.

I think I'd be better able to tough it out if I knew he was OK. I think everyone here knows, so it's OK if I say, that Jim was homeless and living in someone's garage.

I worry that he's out in the cold somewhere, alone.

Sophia,

I was talking more in general than about Jim specifically. I was saying that whatever you're going through will pass, you'll get by it. I'm going by your posts early Sunday morning where you seem very troubled.
