[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 634674, member: 17461"] "Love is not a victory march, it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah." Leonard Cohen Song: Hallelujah *** This quote seems so beautifully to describe the way it feels to walk the paths we walk with our difficult child kids. That we do love them is a miracle of sorts. "...it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah." Really, we are amazing people, to love and to fight for the people we love the way we do. As I read through the threads this morning, I thought about that quote, about the stubborn, determined courage and the triumph in it. I thought about Headlights Mom. Thought about her son's teeth. Thought about Echo, and Daze, about Seeking and Trish, about Try Again and Trinity and COM. About MWM. Remember Joseph Campbell's Heroes Journey, the quest for the Grail -- Superman, defending truth and justice against the Joker and the Penguin.... Who was the actor who portrayed the Joker, and then, died of an overdose? That is addiction, right? That face, the Joker. Cedar [/QUOTE]
