At the airport
I turned around to wave to him one last time
but he was already gone.

I'm so, so sorry you have to be alone. I hope the time flies by and you and the kids really get a chance to lean on each other. You don't know me, but I have been thinking of you.

I was thinking of you this morning. Talking to a friend from Shikoku... The distance so profound.

You are a pretty incredible mother.

Hey, L,

I've been there - and cried like hell, when I was at the airport waving to T and saying goodbye... I didn't know when our long distance marriage would come to an end, and when we would be together in one place, under one roof again... I remember I was sensing this big, deep hollow inside me, standing at the airport lobby. I don't know how many times we were at airports going through what you're going through... so I hope yours won't last as long as mine did... Mine was about 4 bloody years...!

I am thinking of you ... keep smiling... smile with your lung and heart and all parts of your body...

Lots of love for you and your family,

M

oh geez. That's heartbreaking. I'm so sorry. {Although I sometimes LONG for the opportunity to miss and be missed!}.

Cyber hugs L. I just arrived in Doha yesterday--ending my long distance relationship, finally. It's fricken hard. You'll be fine once you get into a rhythm but the first while is so tough.

I have one piece of advice:

Download skype.

Just do it.

It seemed as good a time as any to pop forth from being a longtime lurker to say hello, and that I wish you well at this particularly hard time...

Good to see all the well wishers here but sorry that you're receiving some negative letters. I always find it so odd that people can be that definitive about other people's lives on the internets.

Hang in there :)

Blech. I'm sorry. I hope this time goes by quickly and easily, and that you are together again soon.

Lots of gardening may be helpful?!?
[Sorry, words fail me -- I know this is going to be an incredibly tough time but then again, you'll make it through!]

It must be crazy. Busy. Different. So much to do and figure out.

In the spirit of complete self interest; will you ever be able to blog again.

Thinking of you. Obviously.

But there ain't any Hallmark for this, hey? Or I mean eh?
