In my lonely keep-to-myself times,
Hear my sighs, Lord,
For I am tired of going unnoticed and unloved.
In my my fearful I've-been-hurt-before times,
Hear my anxiety, Lord,
For I'm scared to stick my neck out again.
In my grieving words-can't-express-the-hurt times,
Hear my tears, Lord,
For I don't know if I can face tomorrow.
In my angry leave-me-alone times,
Hear my grinding teeth, Lord.
For I'm so blasted mad I could scream!
In my worried knot-in-the-gut times,
Hear my wrinkled brow, Lord,
For I'm burdened today with yesterday and tomorrow.
In my hectic hit-and-run times,
Hear my pounding feet, Lord,
For I'm running late instead of running to you.
In my searching I-don't-understand times,
Hear my shrugging shoulders, Lord,
For I struggle with the whys and hows of life.
In my troubled I've-done-it-now times,
Hear my beating heart, Lord,
For I feel the weight of having failed-again.
In my anxious I-need-action-now times,
Hear my tension, Lord.
For I'm tired of smashing into doors.

So we all fit
You can change the world
Be proud
Fulfill yourself
unstoppable
I choose to be smart and capable
Your friend, therapist, advisor (God)
The power of being yourself
All the above Valerie put in a diary she got me for our birthday
I'm REALLY frusterated because this is the fourth time I've written this!
going to relax, Sally
