What U Did Today

Why We Are Here

What U Did Today is an idea that came to life when a few of us got together and realized that in today's world, so often, friends and family are separated by great distances. Sometimes these distances are due to geography, just as often, they're emotional. Nonetheless, we all realized that sometimes we would just like to be able to tell SOMEONE how our day was. So we started this site as a place where anyone can come and tell the rest of us what happened today. Triumphs, small or big, are welcomed, and the inevitable losses we all suffer (and are far more in number it always seems) will be shared as well. Unless you advise us otherwise, we will post your first name and location with your entry. But don't worry, your other information will NEVER be shared. So go ahead, open up, Send us an email telling us how your day was, we all have THOSE days, good and bad....and it's always better when you know that SOMEONE is listening.

Today I finally cried for myself. Cried for my struggle, for my pain, my grief over the loss of my identity as an independent person. I realized that I am really at my wit's end and that I have to find a way out. I have spent the past four years worrying about someone else's well being and have neglected to care for my own. I am tired of it, but I don't know what to do. I don't know if there is any one out there who can help me. I have a feeling its something I have to conquer myself. I just doubt that I can find the strength to do it. I fear for both of our safety. Which is a really shitty place to be.

But, at least, today I finally cried for MYSELF. It's nice to remember that I still matter to me.
