Tessa, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your daughter. I know God will heal her and make her be able to go home with you and your husband. God's love is amazing. I'm sending soft hugs your way. Love, Renee.

And to think and to learn and to mentally, spiritually and physically love that one special person, the delicate balance of so many parts of the brain and so many chemicals and neurons involved is almost staggering

I caused damage to this delicate balance and I am sorry God I wasn't thinking.

I saw God and didn't even realize it. Now I need his help because I've hurt too many people with my selfish act and I want them to stop paying the price/ I'm human, so I am also selfishly wanting an end to the pain so I can enjoy everything I overlooked before, when I was mired in self pity.
God forgives if you ask him to. We are all human and make mistakes. But if you're truly sorry and ask for forgiveness, God will forgive you. Take care my friend and I hope you can learn to forgive yourself too.

Default Snow Showers

I saw God today in the 5 inches of snow that was falling today.

While most people were annoyed with it and rushing to Wal-Mart to get bread, milk and toilet paper, I saw it as a blessing.

I was in pain today. Nothing new there, but as I looked out the window and the snow was slowly falling, I noticed that without the sun. The snow was as beautiful as ever.

I thanked and praised God for the beautiful scenery that was before me. The white of white snow, the gray sky and the bare trees with the snow just stuck all in the right places. What a canvas he, God, showed me!

For a moment, I felt no pain. For his beauty shown through and I was forever grateful. I took a picture so that when I have pain, I can look at the picture and remind myself, it's not so bad and that for a day, I forgot my pain.

God is the great physician. Thank you God

I think I have seen God. I am not sure. I am thankful for the good in the world.

Default His big comfy flannel shirt

It is the place to be when we are down
and hurting
Oh what am I to do with all this pain and anger
It is so wrenching
A unmovable mountain
is what it is
Climb it I must
I must reach the top
climbing since a child
first born
and all the responsibility and some
having been born into a Hungarian liniage
My children first generation
and now a grandchild
Who has seen more crying than
I ever wanted a child to have to witness
Brings back horrible memories
sure ask me why dwell on the past
Because it has come full circle
My father committed suiside
My uncle committed suiside
Alcohol ramped in my family in Europe
On both sides
I ill with the disease called alcoholism
I CANNOT DRINK
I have lost my privilege
It truely is cunning
23 years this year
My reason for living
Haven't figured it out yet
My second surgery did me in
My breast surgery botched
My hospital experience both times
UNIMAGINABLE THIS I KID NO ONE
and when so much failure in the procedures
For my surgeon not acknowledge it after second
surgery deny my disturbing swell I developed
came in the morning
drained my surgery site
sent me on my merry way
only for it to swell so badly
I was an animal
screaming in pain

Wanting to be held to feel the flannel shirt
where is it
where did it go
I cannot smell the Love
indescribable to anyone
yet when we feel it and smell it
Ohhh what a feeling
when giving oneself completely
I ask for prayers that I can fight this
horrible depression that has set in without
my consent
hanging on as I have no option
I became responsible court ordered
of my granddaughter
Prayers all around
Love
Me

I think of God and thank him, whenever I see a gorgeous sunrise/sunset, those clouds with the bright sunlit edges and the sun streaming out from behind them, the power and beauty of the ocean....
pretty much all the various awesome scenery in nature and weather..

I agree wholeheartedly. I am lucky to live in a tiny village surrounded by Yorkshire countryside just 8 miles from the sea. When I was able my favourite place was a seaside clifftop sanctuary for Puffins, Gannets, etc. Of all my conditions, the damage to my brain affecting my eyesight - and not knowing whether it will happen again - is the most upsetting.

Eva,
Look into those "beautiful" dark eyes of little Eva; You will see Jesus in them. He knew you were needed to care for her. '

I pray your depression will soon be lessened and the smile, instead of tears, will return for your family to see. You are a strong women.


Gerry

So difficult my dear friend
She does make my day
I do look in her eyes and see
Him I am in a truly Spiritual
place looking into them
but then you know it
Oh sweet lady why
your in a very terrible way
also not able to be elsewhere
for a extended amount of time
As it to applies to me in a different way
my head becomes to heavy to carry
my shoulders arms hands feet neck
and lower back just to mention a few
everyday pain
My Spirit on a roller coaster ride
to hell or so it feels so
the lump in my throat always
It's got to stop sometime
Sweet Brother
Hear our prayers
Love
Me
