Some we carry by choice, although I don't understand the people that make that choice voluntarily. Others carry our demons because of the twisted pathways of our minds, our ids never content unless and until we are taking the most difficult road available, selecting the most elusive alternatives, and making certain our options are always ranked "you have got to be kidding" to "no one has ever tried that before and lived to talk aobut it". You know, in part, some of the demons I carry and nourish each and every day. Yes, in spite of my statement about not understanding the people that invite the demons to jump on board, I have some that I don't have to live with, but I keep them with me anyway. No explanations, no excuses, just me beating myself up. (masochist?? I have actually considered it). I too, however, have demons that ride my mind and erode my willpower on a daily basis. You also know about these guys; I don't have "Ed" doing a rodeo number on my mind, actually I sort of have "De" with the spurs and chaps. (yes, De is the flipside of Ed) CeCe, you KNOW I am not making fun in any way, many of my demons come from the opposite corner of Hell than yours, but it makes them no less bastards of the netherworld. I am trying to deal with mine, and will let you know how I do. I realize this is a lengthy note to someone I love very much about a topic that is not particularly pleasant, but it does have a purpose and a denouement. There is precious little this old man can do to help your through your demon wars, but this I can and will do. You promised you would post three times a week and pledge your love forever and beyond for the person that performed a specific task. I accepted the task gleefully; to provide something for you that meant so much, how could I not? Now I have an opportunity to give you back the tiniest part of the freedom and love that you give so completely to me and many others. I ask for nothing beyond your first post that mentioned how much you loved the gift and what it means to you. You have totally fulfilled your part of being a gracious, loving, kind, sweet, and yes, innocent young lady whom I care for so much. If you post every week, every month, every year, or every day I will wait, read, and love you for it. May you be free from any demons that you do not invite into your life, and may your guest demons behave themselves within the guidelines, parameters, and rules you set. Love you, SBJ CeCe;
