I am fortunate to have a great boyfriend, parents and two best friends who I can count on in an emergency, as well as to share joys of life. Also, I rely on blogging (as it is a stress relief for me) and music (singing). This is a wonderful article.

I'd put my parents in this category, too. We have a supportive group of friends that we've made through our church that we can also count on in emergencies. I'd be hesitant to call them at 4 AM, but know that I could if I really needed to. I didn't think of blogging as a 'friend' but I am certainly making lots of great contacts this way as well.

The one person I know I can count on in any emergency is my husband. But when things are confused or uncertain, journal writing is very helpful. In the past I have written feelings of great anger and pain on a Word document, only to delete it once I've gotten it out of my system. Many times, after I write something down, I realize my fault in it, and/or how I can fix it. This is very soothing. I don't keep alot of these type of writings because seeing them later brings up bad memories, but I keep lots of positive emails, letters and card from friends and family, and it cheers me up to remember when others have expressed their love to me. Now I find blogging is a great help, as since mine are dedicated to fun, laughter and happiness, it keeps those things in my mind each day so I can share them with others. :0) Great article.
