His response....

he responded quite quickly... I will miss him, he seemed to get me... that doesn't come along all that often... most of the time guys humor me, want to fuck me, or well avoid me at all cost... I don't have too many that totally get me... it was nice.. if even just for a tiny, tiny moment... I feel sad now, and once again alone.. but self preservation is a bitch and I just can't let all the walls down only get so hurt that maybe one day I can't recover.. I tired... very tired....

Part of what makes you extraordinary is your ability to cull all of your senses together to a fine point, and then communicate them as effectively as you do. There's nothing that I can say to improve on what you've expressed here. You deserve that 'high climber,' and I'm a person who hasn't even climbed up to greet himself yet. I am new to me, along with all surroundings. You were very brave to let me peek at your world. You were equally brave to show me your vulberability. It's extra tough for someone with your degree of intelligence and passion to filter out all of the static, but you are right to focus all of the courage and love that you can, and do, on those incredible children of yours. I hate hearing about your Mom's antics and I hope that a solution can be found that empowers you as a parent/guide/soldier/individual/poet/child. Do not wobble into the darkness, do not become disconnected from your own inner child, do not forget to take truly good care of yourself, do be your best ally, do pray to whomever might listen, do be very proud of all of the incredible things that you, Laura, have accomplished. You are one helluva' fighter.

it was nice Laura...

I think that was a perfect closing... anything else said would be pointless...
