"Today was a Difficult Day," said Pooh.

There was a pause.

"Do you want to talk about it?" asked Piglet.

"No," said Pooh after a bit. "No, I don't think I do."

"That's okay," said Piglet, and he came and sat beside his friend.

"What are you doing?" asked Pooh.

"Nothing, really," said Piglet. "Only, I know what Difficult Days are like. I quite often don't feel like talking about it on my Difficult Days either.

"But goodness," continued Piglet, "Difficult Days are so much easier when you know you've got someone there for you. And I'll always be here for you, Pooh."

And as Pooh sat there, working through in his head his Difficult Day, while the solid, reliable Piglet sat next to him quietly, swinging his little legs...he thought that his best friend had never been more right."
A.A. Milne

Sending thoughts to those having a Difficult Day today and hope you have your own Piglet to sit beside you

I am very very grateful to all of you Piglets that sit by me and have sat by me on my own difficult days. I don't have that in RL. You are a blessing to me.

While I'm not very consistent with posting, I do read SI almost every day.

So it may not seem like I'm around much, but I am, and hope that you find your Piglet whenever times get tough.

Lionne…

You are such a caring, supportive, ever present person…I can’t imagine that you don’t have this in real life. I’m so sorry.

But we are a whole litter of little piglets here for you!!!

This is lovely Lionne! This place really is special, isn't it? Even in real life there's not quite the same camaraderie.

I'm the BS. WH had an EA/PA with a cOW. DDay was 4/17. Working on R. Married 15 years and together 20 at DDay.
DDay #2 and #3 6/19. Grew a conscience and admitted a full blown physical affair.
Current and forever status is reconciling. I don't
