To Bo and Dawn you are not alone I have had PTSD for 5 years now and depression most of my life if you need a friend or just an ear feel free to write to me at Mariapeaceangel@yahoo.com it always helps to feel that your not alone. But as far as what I want it’s happiness I’m so tired of being stressed and unhappy in my life situations if it were not for my son who is almost 10 months old I really don’t know if I would still be sane. He is the only thing in my life that makes me happy but I want to be completely happy in all aspects of my life more so my marriage and living situation than anything.

if i could have anything to wish for it would be to have the memories and flashbacks of the abuse i dealt with growing up to go away.. not only with the memories of abuse that happened to me, but also with my brother and sister and mostly the abuse my father done to my mom.. i want to stop remembering the fear and pain we had to go through… the fear we went through having a gun pointed at us as he kept us awake all night making us set on the couch without moving or saying a word… i want all of that to go away.. i am the type of person that has always kept all of this bottled up inside of me, noone to talk to about it.. im sorry for the details, but i have to get some of this off of my chest.. me and my family has been away from him for 3 years now, he has finally left us alone.. even though things are going good now.. the pain is still there.. i know the pain will always be there, but i just wish it would go away.. he has caused so much hatred toward him, and i shouldnt hate my father.. i know its wrong, but i cant help from it.. i just wish i could erase all of that from my thoughts.

Peace in my family and relationships built again between my daughter and me and my son and me and my boyfriend and me and his daughter and me. My mother on my side. The depression to go away and not come back. My health to be strong again. To gain my weight back! Money, we all need money to make things easier. Not to struggle everyday to make bills or have food to eat. I want to stop crying everyday and laugh instead and make the best memories.
Have real love from the ones I love and them accept me as I am. Perfect or imperfect!
Someone to always lean on and know they will always stand by my side in good times and bad times.

I pray for all these things!

Dear Bo
I came across your response to “What Do I Want” as I myself wasn’t sure really myself what I really wanted ,I thought I would look at some other peoples responses to see what other people wanted and yours really got to me. I related to a lot of the same things you said you wanted.I don’t have a relationship with my daughter. S he blames me for a lot of things. I guess she doesn’t understand that I did the best I could and I raised her all by myself without any help from anyone even family didn’t help. So I to wish my daughter would find a way to love me. And as far as the ptsd same here..tired of the anxiety and depression that has ruled my life for as long as I can remember.
Friends I would like as well. Seems that I have bad luck with picking the wrong friends and boyfriends. They never really are who they say. I have felt very used by people in a lot of ways.I would like someone to really care. I have felt alone all my life . I was happy when my daughter was born as well. I am not sure exactly what happened to her . S he is not the girl I remember.
And I to am sooo tired of crying everyday.
I was just talking to god right before I read your response and I asked for some good times to come my way. I don’t know how to change my life ..I would if I knew.
Thank you for sharing your wishes. I do wish that they will come true for you.
Dawn

I would like Rick to not be depressed and to love me. I am very sad now, too.

I would really love to meet my birth mother – at 43 years old – its time for me to meet her, her family, and possibly my birth farther – she didn’t necessarily wished to give me up for adoption – as I have proof of this, but I was and she did at the very least help select a wonderful family -

but to look into her eyes, to have the first hug – knowing she is my blood relative – I would have found my home – Terrie Walsh where are you….

The one thing I would have in my life would be peace of mind. I don’t know how I could achieve this since it is compromised of so many other things but that would be the one thing I would want.

sad to say, everything i want boils down to money. something i’ve never enough of, let alone any extra.

i want enough money to not worry about if i can pay my bills. i want the money to pay off my best friend’s student loans, buy him a house and help him set up his business. i want the money to buy my mom a better house, somewhere she loves. i want the money to buy myself a better camera, (and some classes!) so i can do the artwork i’m meant to do. i want the money to print and frame the three shows’ worth of material i already have. i want the money to actually pay the people who are so good as to model for me. i want the money to open an art gallery for emerging (aka starving) artists. i want the money to set up grants for these same artists, so they can continue to make art. i want the money to buy a small house for myself, with a big yard, so i can grow my own vegetables. i want the money to occasionally go on a trip to somewhere warm and beautiful.

i want to never have to worry about money again. the lack thereof has always held me back, held me down.
