Another point to the proof

I let a friend in close, perhaps too close. Apparently, I am no longer capable of hiding as much of myself as I used to be able to. However, I keep making the mistake of caring too much and giving away that I care. In this case, I find myself becoming an ego boost to people, all the while masquing my own unhappiness and my own frustrations. I guess it's nice to know that others look to me for an ego boost, but it still isolates me outside the rest of the world. According to my friend, she was able to discern my feelings for a while and I can only imagine they have been an ego boost for her. I am glad for her. She is a special lady and one who should be very happy with herself. She is attractive, intelligent, and sells herself short. She really can shine when she wants. So, now my thoughts and feelings can be used to help her.
Shine on you Crazy Diamond comes to mind about now.
