I really do find the angel stuff fairly unbearable, though rainbows, in moderation, have quite a resonance with me. I just don't think I could read anything with endless angels. When I used the PASS site, that was angelly and it seemed somehow okay there, though not for me, but Freddie dying changed that. He's too real, I just can't cope with angels, even for comfort.

What I like about here is people seem to have an acceptance that there is rage and frustration and bitterness. Gods will, natures way makes me want to scream. I can find some meaning in Freddie's life but I don't want platitudes and I sure as hell don't want to be told to be grateful for what I have or feel I have to apologise for having live children. That seems to be okay here.
