«Dear reader»

Dear reader,
Stop that frown and turn it into a great big smile.
Life's not worth all these tears that come pouring out
of your eyes.
My names Grace and I used to be depressed and
anorexic.
Here is my story to you through letters.
Trust me, it gets better.
I know what you're thinking, cliche much, but what's
life without getting a little bit cliche every now and
then.
Yours sincerely ixperience

The Dark Candle

A man had a little daughter, an only and much beloved child. He lived only for her, she was his life.So when she became ill and her illness resisted the efforts of the best obtainable physicians, he became like a man possessed, moving heaven and earth to bring about her restoration to health.His best efforts proved fruitless, however, and the child died. The father was totally irreconcilable. He became a bitter recluse, shutting himself away from his many friends, refusing every activity that might restore his poise and bring him back to his normal self. Then one night he had a dream. He was in heaven and witnessing a grand pageant of all the little child angels. They were marching in an apparently endless line past the Great White Throne. Every white-robed, angelic tot carried a candle. He noticed, however, that one child's candle was not lit. Then he saw that the child with the dark candle was his own little girl. Rushing towards her, while the pageant faltered, ...

The hospital window

Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room. One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to help drain the fluid from his lungs. His bed was next to the room's only window. The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back. The men talked for hours on end. They spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, their involvement in the military service, where they had been on vacation. Every afternoon when the man in the bed by the window could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window. The man in the other bed began to live for those one hour periods where his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and color of the world outside. The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake. Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Young lovers walked arm in arm amidst flowers of every color and a fine v...

Just feel like crying,the touching life

There are a lot of things about parenthood that could make one cry...the cost of formula, sleepless nights, or diaper messes just to name a few. However, for me the absolute worst had to be - immunization shots. At about two months into parenthood,I learned the true meaning of the word "heartbreak". There could not have be anything worse than watching helplessly as he receives his first round of immunization shots. I would have rather have been run over by a truck than have to sit there and watch him go through that. While listening to his screams, I kept thinking that surely medical science could have come up with a better way odoing this by now.As far as any solace from the doctor, all he could say was, "Ah, look at those healthy tears." As we left the office, I whispered into my son's ear, "It's okay, Sam.Sometimes you just have to cry."In a way I guess it was only a matter of time before Sam was introduced to pain in his life. I r...
