Miscommunication

It makes me sad to see how much pain the inability to communicate can cause.

That is why I'm only in town for the weekend. I love love love my sisters, but there are some people who have no idea how to communicate and then because their needs aren't being met, lash out at their perceived attackers (who usually have no idea what set that person off or why). It's just something I can't handle being around. I think I'll try to broach the subject politely and see what they think about it...

I'm glad I'll only be here for the weekend--even though I love the south and miss it desperately while I'm gone. Some people are just too painful to be around.


Who wouldn't miss this?

Also, the temptation to allow myself to get sad and just hold that feeling close to myself and create a cocoon gets really strong sometimes. Like right now. I want to use sadness as my shield/barrier... (I'm still too sensitive to careless comments, apparently)

Yay! A weekend in Hannah's favorite place! We miss you terribly too if you ever want to spend a weekend this way ;).
You know I think the worst thing about miscommunication is how it can make you feel isolated & hurt when no one involved did anything wrong.
