I haven't been around much the past while, for a number of reasons really, but most of all I just haven't had the energy and the heart. I've met some incredible people through this site, but after awhile it seems to just grow to be too much to keep up with. Now, don't go thinking that just because I'm feeling that way that it means I don't care, because that is definitely not the case at all. I think about many of you from time to time and day to day, but I feel that I've lost some of myself in doing so. There are people that I have connected with on much more than just a "cyber-friend" level and I enjoy hearing how they are doing and what is going on in their lives, but I noticed a few months ago that I was getting too wrapped up in it all and took a much needed step back. The past few months have been incredibly difficult. It has been a roller-coaster ride like none I've ever been on before...and I'm not sure it's one that I would buy a season's pass to either. I have had incredible ups....so far up that I swear the clouds were brushing against my forehead. But of course, as the old saying goes...what goes up, must come down and holy shit did gravity ever do it's job. I hit the bottom so hard and so deep, well, I still haven't been able to climb up to the top yet. It seems that no matter the aspect of my life, it's in some sort of a state of flux (for lack of a better word right now). I have found myself withdrawing at times from everyone and everything...taking every ounce of willpower that I have to get out of bed every morning and start the day of getting the grandson off to school. When I get done I just want to crawl back into bed and wish the world away. The things/people that usually bring a smile to my face aren't there, the things/people that have a way of helping me to see past the dark spots are few and far between, the areas of my life that I have looked at as stable and comforting have become a vortex. I've hit every emotion there is, sometimes spending days upon days in the worst of them. I feel as if my life is not my own, that all the things I want and need in order to feel whole and complete, are in the hands of others to determine. I haven't yet figured out how to take that control back and to be honest, some days it's just much easier to let someone else have it than to struggle to regain it. I feel like a robot right now, just going through the motions but yet not able to have any emotion.

This is beautifull and inspiring I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Thanks to Mark and Sally. Belva Two traveling angels Keep reading to the bottom of the page -- don't stop at the feet (You'll see). Two traveling angels stopped to spend the night in the home of a wealthy family. The family was rude and refused to let the angels stay in the mansion's guest room. Instead the angels were given a small space in the cold basement. As they made their bed on the hard floor, the older angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it. When the younger angel asked why, the older angel replied, "Things aren't always what they seem." The next night the pair came to rest at the house of a very poor, but very hospitable farmer and his wife. After sharing what little food they had the couple let the angels sleep in their bed where they could have a good night's rest. When the sun came up the next morning the angels found the farmer and his wife in tears. Their only cow, whose milk had been their sole income, lay dead in the field. The younger angel was infuriated and asked the older angel how could you have let this happen? The first man had everything, yet you helped him, she accused. The second family had little but was willing to share everything, and you let the cow die. "Things aren't always what they seem," the older angel replied. "When we stayed in the basement of the mansion, I noticed there was gold stored in that hole in the wall. Since the owner was so obsessed with greed and unwilling to share his good fortune, I sealed the wall so he wouldn't find it." "Then last night as we slept in the farmers bed, the angel of death came for his wife. I gave him the cow instead. Things aren't always what they seem." Sometimes that is exactly what happens when things don't turn out the way they should. If you have faith, you just need to trust that every out come is always to your advantage. You just might not know it until some time later... Oooo Some people ( ) come into our lives ) / and quickly go.

IF NOT, HER TEARS WILL FLOW AND NO WISHES WILL BE GRANTED.... Now don't delete this message, because it comes from a very special angel.

"Follow your bliss and the universe will open doors for you where there were only walls." Joseph Campbell No one is to be called an enemy, all are your benefactors, and no one does you harm. You have no enemy except yourselves. St. Francis I was just reading an article online about a program where teenagers from Israel, Lebanon, Palestine etc. are all brought together to learn from each other and work past their differences. One of the girls said this to another and it really made me think. "If I don't know you, it is easy to hate you. But if I look in your eyes, I can't." If you know your worth......you do not need anyone else to confirm it. Alan Cohen Being unwilling to forgive is like drinking poison and hoping the other person dies. Love is the ability and willingness to allow those that you care for to be what they choose for themselves, without any insistence that they satisfy you. Dr. Wayne Dyer
