MDJunction to me

suebaby41"I was recently diagnosed with Recurrent Breast Cancer In The Chest
Wall. I would not be able to handle it as well as I am without the
help of my MDJunction friends. It just proves to me that there are
lots of good people in this world and I am happy to be involved with
MDJunction who seems to have most of them.

Mine is very simplistic... Butterfly. It's actually kind of entertaining- I've had people think it meant Bar Fly! LOL It does not. Butterfly- I have an intense passion for them and find them soooo meaningful and applicable in my own life... really in everyones life. That's it.
Your joy is your sorrow unmasked. And the selfsame well from which your laughter rises was oftentimes filled with your tears. And how else can it be? The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain. Kahlil Gibran

I am not a Dr and therefore are not able to provide medical advice, the opinions I express are mine and based on my experiences and should not be taken as anything other than my opinion.

You awake as if from a nightmare to find yourself standing in front of a blank wall, dazed with no idea as to how you got there.

You feel something in your hand. You look down to see you are holding paint brush, you are confused. Out of the corner of your eye you see a table, on that table is some paint. The colours make you feel happy and safe, you look to the other side, and there is another table with paint. The colours are dark and remind you of your nightmare, a chill runs down your spine at the thought of it.

You look back at the canvas and see something you missed before. Now you understand. you chose a colour, and begin to paint.

Above the wall was written,

Your life

*Youngfilly*

Inspiration i found in the shower a few yrs back :)

I had joined the site in the beginning of the year, but had some issues with my feelings getting hurt by ppl on here. After contemplating whether to return or not I came up with this name because my feelings are so easily hurt, therefore DelicateSoul just seem to stand for so much of what I was going thru at that time. Very depressed, very easily hurt, just "delicate" Smile But I truly love the name!
