    Sylvia, take care of yourself.

    You have my thoughts and prayers, although I confess I don't know what it is that isn't going well with you.

    Thanks for the love, everyone.

    I'm just shutting down - emotionally, mentally, and physically.

    It's like I can't function anymore.

    I've undergone numerous tests, with nothing conclusive.

    Thanks again for all the concern, love, and prayers.

    Love and peace back to y'all.

    You're tired, among other things, Syl (the greatest of love and peace to you!). Completely and utterly tired. Just all out of fight... for now. I can "hear" it in your "voice." Just getting through day-to-day life can take SUCH an emotional toll on us... which can have a serious effect on us mentally and physically. I don't want to get into much here but I've learned that sometimes there's only two things you can do: (1) throw that burden on Christ, and (2) say no. NO. Uh-uh, no way, no how. For me, it usually comes with work - I'm usually asked to do, say, or be something I can't/am not. And so I say, sorry, uh-uh. Of course, they don't like that and begin to make life "hard"... but that's because they don't expect me to walk away ("Surely, she NEEDS this job; everyone NEEDS their job, so she'll take it, like everyone else.") But... uh-uh, no, I won't. I will hand in a 30-day notice (or, if the situation calls for it, pack a box that very day)... at the drop of a hat, if the situation calls for it... and then walk. Away. Not EVEN look back.

    Doesn't matter if I don't have another job; I was looking for a job when I found that one. I'll find another - always do. NOT because I'm special but because I've discussed the matter with my Lord and said, "There's no way I can do/say/or be... and remain in union with YOU... so you're gonna have to find me something else." And he always does. Always.

    Not saying that your job is involved; maybe not. But that's usually what it is with me. I just don't give a hoot enough about this world to get all "caught up" in the ambitious "scratch" to the top. Folks keep wanting to PUSH me in that direction, but it's just not for me, not at risk of my integrity, which is often risked the higher you go. Ennywho...

    Look don't give up, Syl, and don't give in. Take a rest, please. You're even welcome to come out to Cali for a bit if you need to get away. I have a LOVELY "guest" room (it's all "girlie" looking and everything!). Give your mind, body, and HEART, some time to recuperate. Take care of yourself, personally. Do what YOU need to care for YOU, right now. Everyone/thing else can wait. It has to. Because (1) you're important (yes, you are!), and (2) everyone will lose if you don't. Unfortunately, companies/employers go on... regardless of whether WE do.

    Take care of YOU, my sister.

    The greatest of love and peace to you, my dear one... and may JAH bless. You AND your entire household.

    YOUR servant, sister, and fellow slave of Christ,

    Shel

    Awww ... Shelby.

    What can I say?

    It's part job and part family.

    So many, many demands, and everyone looking to Ol' Sibbie to make things right.

    *sigh*

    I'm working hard at restoring my soul.

    Thank you for the kind and sincere offer, but I got myself into this, and am fighting my way out of it.

    Love, peace, and blessings to you and yours to time indefinite.
