Hello, my friends. I hope the moment finds you well, and, if not good health, then good spirits.
You may not recognize me, but know that I'm a true friend to you, and my energies are forever cast out in sacrifice for your good favor. I want the best for you, pretty much. Friends, acquaintances, or strangers alike, I want for you to succeed.
My reason for writing, I want to offer a few words of encouragement, for the few that will bother looking, and who need it. I understand the struggle, and I know a lot of the pain that's a burden to so many of you. I haven't been dealt the worst of cards, but I've had my share of ache. I'm still there, too. I'm struggling, right with you.
Good health is attainable. There are roads to be traveled, after Lyme disease. Young or old, it is possible. I realize my opinion may be less than believable for some. It can really do a number on the mind, and the body. On top of that, financial issues, lack of treatment options, it can be tough. I know. Who knows, maybe it's the youth in me?
But, even so, it's there. You just have to fight, be patient, and have faith, if only it's faith in yourself. Positivity, strength, resilience. These are going to help you just as much, if not more than, your antibiotics, herbs, and supplements. Of course, you need to treat, but you need to be hopeful, too. Persistently.
I don't expect to save any lives, coming here, saying these things. But, rather than that, maybe provoke someone to pick themselves back up, and keep striving to save their own life. Because, while we have our support systems, we're the only ones really throwing the punches.
"Struggle on, struggler," a line from something of a Japanese comic series. Die fighting, if you have to. Don't let yourself be made to eat dirt. Lyme has bitter opponents in each and every one of us. The fire burns brightly. Darkest of nights, go towards the light. You can. "I can." Fight.
I'm not a religious person (though, maybe that will change, someday), but my prayers go out to you, and I hope you can return the favor.
Life has me pretty busy, nowadays. But, know that I won't forget about
you.
Whatever I'm worth... you have my love, one and all.
Mwah!
