Is anyone reading this thing?

I'm going to pout for a while here. I think I have a right. Here I am in Iraq, I've come back to basically none of my past friends. There are some here, but they have lives of their own. The people I have felt close to and love, are not here with me. Iraq has lost it's luster. Maybe it's just loneliness and homesickness talking right now, but I have always felt that this was where I needed to be, and now, I wish that I was home. But even home isn't very much like home. So much in my life has changed. So much in everyone's life has changed. I wonder where I belong. I wonder IF I belong. Am I writing this just for my own self indulgence? Does anyone care? Only one person has ever posted a comment to me. Do you realize how supportive that is? But if no one is reading... I can either say anything I want to say... and not give a damn about what anyone thinks, or I can just stop writing and wasting my time. So if you read, please post a comment, if nothing else but to say hello, you are following me... if I get no responses, I'll determine my next step. Maybe deleting the whole thing would be my best bet. That's a thing to consider. Then again, maybe tomorrow everything will be rosy, and it won't matter that I am lonely today.

Came across your blog today by chance...and wanted to let you know we're reading. Maybe one or two or a few, but we're reading. Regardless its okay to have a bit of self indulgence. I write my blog for me. Sure, I love it when people stop by and boost my ego by leaving a little comment here and there, but let your blog be for you. Find the freedom in it. And by the way, thank you for all you're doing. There are those of us here that totally support all your efforts. Yes, we wish you were all home, but we're thankful you're fighting for our freedom. I'm honored to have found your blog.
