You stopped me to talk about the Ecology Action Centre, and I was in a pretty good mood and had nowhere to be immediately so I said "Sure, why not." I want to thank you for being able to have a genuine conversation about the environmental issues surrounding Nova Scotia. We talked for about 30 minutes, and there was not one point where I thought "Is this guy ever going to shut up?" nor was I dreading the moment when you would ask me for a contribution. You have restored my faith in humanity, and I hope that our paths will cross again some time. —Corner of South Park and Spring Garden

To the lovely lady in the blue Isuzu Thursday morning in the drive thru at the Bayer's Road coffee chain. Thank you so much for paying for my coffee. It was totally unexpected and caught me off guard that I drove off with my money still in my hand. I waved at you but as it was dark you probably didn't see me. I promise to do the same next week for the next one in line. Happy Friday! —Will pay it forward

It's been a long 15 months! After leaving Halifax in search for opportunities in the bigger city, and even in the small countryside... we're finally coming home. Not only that, but just scored the best downtown house to top it off. We're in bliss. We can't contain it. We can't wait to come home to Halifax. —Wolfpack

I am truly thankful for the time we spent together. You have helped me in so many ways. I know we may never be together again but I hope you cherish our time as much as I do. When we were good we were great. I had so much fun with you I will never forget the good times and the bad. I want you to be happy and well. One day you will make a great caring mother. And you truly have helped me a lot. I don't know where I would be now without you. Lots of love. —Turd

You leave me hints to your identity, you write LOVE comments to me admitting you care about me. Then when I reach for the phone, I begin to have second thoughts about your identity. I've been through that before, years ago. As a result I was extremely hurt and remain hurt, not to mention felt like something was taken from me. I guess I frightened you away again. You should know why I do that. Instead, it seems you begin to play games with me in order to make me not want you...I know that you are a great person and we are not going anywhere. I will admit I was becoming obsessive again because I asked you twice to contact me but nothing. Also I was trying to find your true identity. I do want you, I just can't take being rejected again, if I am wrong about who you are. You know my name and my feelings for you but, I'm not that sure if you are the person that has been writing Loves to me. If I could be granted one wish, I would wish for you to be my Love. —Still Dazed and Confused

I wish I knew what you were thinking. I wish I knew what you've been up to and how you're doing. I hope you didn't change your mind about me. I understand why you pushed me away, at least I'm trying to, but I wish you didn't. Don't get over me. I'll always come back to you. You're the only one whose ever had my heart. —When I'm with Him I am Thinking of You

But I think you've made a big mistake. You had a woman (Im calling her #1) in your life who's friendly and caring no matter what happened. She opened you up to a life without drugs, gave you support (saw it in her eyes at every NA meeting she came with you), and stuck by you even when you were having bad times. And she made you laugh. She isn't an addict but because you are, she stood with you. Then she stopped coming around.

Word is that you dumped her. And you are seeing a recovering addict now (#2). I know you think this new one knows your struggle better, but this is a disaster IMO. You're an addict working the program, do you think saddling yourself with a nice but messed up woman will help you? What do think is going to happen when you have to be on your own?

Last week at a NA meeting I saw #1 in another room with a bunch of people. She was smiling, laughing and looked like she's someone with her shit together. Then I looked at you and thought "Man, you were lucky. Lots of us only wish we had someone like that." I don't know what you are thinking but #2 isn't the best person to plan a future with, not that she's bad, but she has her own shit to deal with and in the long run will not be able to take on your shit too.

If you can, see if #1 will talk to you. Cause when it comes down to it, she made you happy even when your life was shit. #2 won't be able to handle it, sorry to say. Your shit and her shit together will be too much. And do you want to screw up all you have done so far in the program? I only write this because I can't say it to your face. Hate what I am sayin, but don't stay stupid. —Meeting Buddy

Thanks so much to the gentlemen and ladies on South Park with signs supporting a woman's choice to have an abortion. I love you guys. Thanks for bringing some balance to the issue. It made me feel so good to have you out there. —Lady Pushing a Stroller and Blowing You Kisses

Please know that I care. I just happen to be going through a lot of stuff now too. Everything just takes a bit of time. —Closer

I do want your help but I'm too afraid of being rejected again. I could lose a lot more than my pride if you turned me away again. A mind is a bad thing to lose. When I'm convinced it's you, and I'm over the moon, then I'm hurt because I'm not sure whether I'm speaking to you. I think of you 1000 times a day, you're in my dreams. Which is my only chance of peace in my life. We need to see your awesome smile and bright blue eyes and your strong shoulders to cry on. I miss you and that's no joke. —I Want Your Help
