Only Yesterday.

 

The "Karen Carpenter Story" has haunted me for years.
Thinking she was FAT, she apparently "pinched an inch" at her waist until her body was so diminished her heart stopped. Nothing anyone said to her could change her behavior.

Today I heard this song on our "Classic Rock" station and really listened to the words.
Heartbreaking.

We must always remember-
Although they look normal, others around us may be living lives of quiet desperation.

True words.

Well said, and yes, a truly sad loss due to 'image' issues...
