Strong Woman

--- sent this fwd to me tonight.
"to one of the strongest women I know" she says. honey, i know i'm strong, but sometimes i feel so, so weak. i don't feel strong at all a lot of times. i feel out of control. over the edge. out of touch. anything but strong. i miss you so much. i wanted to spend the rest of my life with you sharing, commiting, respecting, loving, sacrificing. I wanted to live my life with you and for you. it hurts so much to not be able to share with you. i wanted to be so loyal, loving and caring to you. i love you so much - i wish u were here so i could keep sharing my love with you.
i love you...i will always. your baby girl oxoxoxox
