Yes, I know humans can be just as bad. I've never been one to say they can't.

It's just in my world? There is no such thing as a good monster.

Jon has said much the same. There are some very disturbing and frightening things in my world, as well. Not quite the same, but enough that I understand.

I hope you can find a balance, as difficult as it may be. You seem to be off to a start, even in just being willing to try and listen, and I do appreciate that.

[alwayskayaking]

I'm trying to find that balance. Some days, it still feels like I'm on the verge of tipping over, but I'm trying to get better.

[afterthefire]

I think there are always days like that, for everyone no matter what their trials. Knowing when to give yourself space is important, just as much as the times you push yourself a little bit in the name of progress.

But I'm glad to see you making the effort. It's not always a good and safe world, but some of us do our best.

[alwayskayaking]

Here's hoping I don't end up taking three steps back.

[afterthefire]

Likewise. I sincerely hope that you continue to have...*better* experiences, and less of the terrible things you've encountered.

I know it's not easy, but I do wish you the best.

[alwayskayaking]

And I wish you the best as well. [Something he might not have ever said a year ago.]

[afterthefire]

It's very much appreciated.

[He means it sincerely. Wolf has certainly made note of Tim's progress, as precarious as it might be at times.]

have a good evening, Tim, I'm sure we'll speak again soon.

[alwayskayaking]

Take care.
