Tell me, please

[pegkerr]

I've been asked to take stock of my resources, and in particular, to note all the things I am doing right. Not in the too distant past (yes, I wrote some good books, but that was several years ago). I'm talking about, within the past year.

Friends list, please tell me the things I am doing right. Lurkers, that includes you.

Right now, I need to hear that rather desperately.

You are, to quote Kipling, keeping your head when all those around you are not. And don't dismiss this, because it's a rare quality. Of course you feel like a gibbering nervous wreck, but guess what? Everyone does. Some show it more than others is all.

You're a solid anchor for your family and you're doing the absolute best with what you're given. That's worth a lot. You may not think you're doing a good job at it, but you are.

You're an island of sanity, for family and even for fandom, and alternity. I know I can count on you for advice, suggestions, and valuable criticism. I know, and many others do too, that if I needed you, you'd do whatever you could.

So what are you doing right? After a year like this, you're still standing. In a few years, you'll look back and be pretty fucking impressed at that.
