Why is it so damned hard to find a place I can truly be happy? Why am I trying so hard to find a place called home when is all actuality home is right here where I am? Why do the words you write speak so clearly to me my heart hurts when I hear them? Why do I wait so long for you but you never call so it's never worth it? And why oh why do I keep coming back and thinking maybe this time it'll be different when you so obviously never cared for me in the first place, and all those times were just obligation? I guess it's been too long, one too many nights spent waiting. So it's over then, and all I now have to do is wait for summer, when I can escape to one of the original places I was ever truly content.
I just wanted the assurance that I am still here for a reason, that I'm not crazy. Someone please tell me I'm not losing my mind and remind me of the things I love. Let me know that I haven't lost my mind.
Why do I give up so easily?

Hi Teri.
I just want to tell you that I am so impressed by the woman you are and the woman you are becoming. I know we've had our moments (youth on occasion was trying for both of us I'm sure :) but I was blessed to know you then and I am blessed to know you now (though not as well as I did then). I see you blossoming though. I know life is hard, I know high school is lame, and I pray you can finish strong and know that there is a better life waiting for you when you walk out of that school for the last time. I think you are a terrific girl and I know God has wonderful things in store for you. Keep your chin up, and remember you won't find your true home until you leave this earth. You will see glimpses of it here though, as I'm sure you already have. Have a great week.
