on the other end....

today was one of those days... when i just wanted to call someone to hear a voice on the other end of the phone say, "how are you?" ~ and even though my answer would have been silence and inaudible tears, at least someone would have been on the other end who knew they didn't need to give me any answers or pep talks or earth shattering advice ~ they would already know that just being on the other end was all i needed.

somedays you just need to call someone and say ~ " i am having a bad day, week, year, life "  ~ whatever fits ~ and to just be there while you cry on the other end.  how lucky to have someone who understands that silence on the other end is ok ~ someone who knows that you just need to hear their voice for some sort of reassurrance that life will be ok, that you will find your way through whatever it is that you are going through ~ that just the sound of their voice and knowing they care will help you get through another hour, day, week. 

i hope you have someone on the other end because not having someone who understands silence and inaudible tears is a place where no one should ever have to find themselves....
