Lately I feel like I'm just a breathing living lifeless body. I drag myself to work everyday, sit on my desk and read emails but nothing really is registering on my brain. Have you ever work for nothing? I'm currently on a slump that I just cried everytime my sanity comes back. Then when its gone I am back to my routine. Sometimes I even wonder if I still have any tears left.
Why is it that the people you love the most ends up hurting to badly. Because I could not confine my problems to anyone else I think I have mastered the art of faking a smile and saying "I'm OK" to those people that asks me if Iam ok.

Hi, Psiwind! I am sorry that you are very sad. That is life. I have been hurt by people that I loved and didn't loved. It happens either way. I just pray and tell God how I am hurting so that he can heal my broken heart. My mother-in-law and many other people in my life, have did me wrong. And I took all of my sadness and learned how to live for me. It is going to be hard, but sooner or later you can do it. I had to. I have faked a smile many of times. Especially when I had to go to church and deal with people that had no idea what I was going through. My heart was heavy and broken along with it. I have learned that by talking to the people that has hurt me, helped me to heal. Maybe you should try doing this. It may make you feel better! You are the bigger person in your life, don't let the bad things that someone may do to you bring you down to the ground. Pick yourself up and smile you are always loved by God, just remember that. Take care.

Hi. I never expected that religion would be part of the answer. Honestly I have almost stopeed believing but it seems your suggestions made me realized that maybe I should try and pray again. I know he always listens and gives an answer, maybe I am just not listening hard enough to hear the answer. But thank you.
