A word of thanks
Dear friends whoever or wherever you are,Thank you.
Thank you for your encouragement and support, for saying you believe in me. At a time when it feels like no one knows let alone understand what’s going on in my mind, receiving words of assurance and comfort from you has been a tonic to this hurting heart of mine.
In all honesty, I never really intended for anyone to read my blog. Since from the beginning I decided that I would write exactly what I feel inside, with no self restrain, I knew it was going to be very personal, with all my weaknesses laid bare for all to see. So, I kept this domain close to my heart, only ever having told a small handful of people. Even now, I’m not sure if they read what I write, or have they forgotten about it.
For what seemed like the greater half of this blog, I received no comments. I felt assured that I was alone, that this truly was my little secret hiding place.
But slowly, I start receiving words of encouragement, comments here and there, little snippets of your own personal struggles relating to mine. I was a little embarrassed that someone out there read what I wrote and actually replied. But I felt honoured and touched that you think my struggles are worthy of your attention, especially at times when your words meant the difference between waking up with hope or despair. After all, who am I to you but a stranger half way around the globe.
Believe it or not, I really appreciate your kind words. It energizes me to receive words of “Good job” or “Hang in there.” and “I feel your pain.” Though you all say it in your own special way. I have been back sliding in my own faith, and knowing that you have me in your prayers really brings warmth to my heart.
I know there are a small handful of you reading this. Those who have given me words of encouragement, I thank you deeply from the bottom of my heart. To those who read what I say and kept me in your prayers, I can’t thank you enough. We may or may not ever get to know each other personally in the future, but I will always remember that at my most difficult times, someone kind soul out there was listening and I wasn’t alone.
Yours sincerely
Eu-Hann
