Dear @NatureLover, @Exoplanet, @Oaktree, @Adge, Re: Writing and receiving letters via virtual post Since you are encouraging creative writing I thought I would have a go. I have been watching a programme about Australia so I thought I would rewrite Dorothea McKellar's poem "I love a sunburnt country".......
My version....
I love a ravaged country,
A land burned black and bare,
Of inaccessible mountains,
And floods that strip soils there,
I love it's barren paddocks,
I love it's polluted seas,
It's excessive urban sprawl,
Extinction for all to see.
Hope this makes you giggle.

Oh gosh @Oaktree
I feel so terribly awful now.
My twin and mother cannot cope with me because of my mental health symptoms and also feel the same way about my son who is seriously ill. They believe that I should just forget about him as it is too upsetting.
They find myself and son too upsetting so love comes with conditions with them.
I have been told by my therapist that my twin has narcissistic traits.
I was also in a very controlled, abusive relationship where I had to leave suddenly with assistance. I was later told that the person was a narcissist and my life was in danger.
I found paperwork after I left where he had been charged with physical assault previously.
Very frightening.
I do not use social media as a result now.
I also do not give permission for my photograph to be taken either.
I will leave you alone and in peace.
I am truly sorry to have dragged this up for you.
I can only say if you want to talk at any time. Not on here. I use another thread "Living with ourselves".
If not I understand.
Cannot believe that I did that.

That is actually really good although a little depressing. Keep up the writing my dear friend.

Oh Sophia, do not feel bad! It's fine. You weren't to know and it didn't drag up any kind of feelings at my end. I hope that it didn't trigger you too much. I am sorry to hear about your twin and Mother. I know first hand how upsetting birth families can be because you didn't choose them but are kind of stuck with them anyway. I had to make the hard decision to not have contact with my siblings in the end as well as they reported my life back to my Mother. If she wanted to know what was going on then she should have tried to have a relationship with me. Please do not be upset. I love that we are having fun. Love always.
Your Eeyore xxx
