Well Hello

i've received several messages from friends about posting an update here.

it is true there are people here who care for/ about me, and it doesn't take too much time out of my day to just post a litte update, so i figured i would.

i heard from a little birdy with a big nose that my name has been mentioned once or twice around here, and that prompted me to stick my nose in.

I'm glad to hear you are doing well Richie.

A calmer, more serene, moment in time.....

by AK - Jeff in

four weeks ago, my only child, my daughter, was asked to leave my home.

it was tough love.

she has spent the previous 3 years incarcerated.

Jeff - you and your wife are in my thoughts. I have some experience with what you are going through, drug addiction is not pretty for anyone in the family especially the children. Pm me anytime and feel free to call.

My Current Battle

ranting individuals need not reply.

i need encouragement and general advice, personal accounts etc.. am i a christian or am i not?

i've come to a point where i'm not sure whether or not i want to believe in anything, at the moment i'm confused as to whether i am a believer or whether i am someone recovering from indoctrination.. i feel that i've not had a 'pure' opportunity to decide if i want to be a believe and although the thought has been in the back of my mind, the conditioning has made me delay it and my current circumstances and poor health are forcing me to face it - i fear facing it will make me worse because its yet another thing i am not really mentally strong enough to deal with.. is it natural i fear what being an atheist means for me.

I remember being so overwhelmed by that very thing that I couldn't even think straight.

Then I realized that I don't have to figure it out all at once. I decided to take a breather and not worry about it. Just let it be.

I'm on a journey, my journey, one day at a time.

If there is a God - then he knows my heart and I don't believe he would require me to be able to figure it all out. If he does then I don't want to worship him anyway.

Nope - not in real life or here. I would hope I'm not a carbon copy of anyone or they of me. How boring would that be?

i've totally came to terms with my df'ing over the past year.

its easier for me to see dubs than it was.

What good news, all that acceptance and freedom and the love of your life too?

Congratulations, you lucky, lucky man.

It's stories like yours that give me hope.

This is all too surreal. What are you doing?..Where are you at..RIGHT NOW?

ever have one of those really weird moments?

part melancholy...fleeting and just weird.

it's like certain uncontrollable elements come together to create an overwhelming sadness...or maybe it's just the caffeine.. so here i am sitting in a starbucks, in one of the comfy seats...been here since opening at 6am...when all of sudden i'm reading the post by uzzah, listening to the starbucks channel play georgia on my mind by ray charles...followed by i left my heart in san francisco...fighting back tears to no avail....and everything around me is hazy.

AWAKE&WATCHING

At the moment I am under the electric blanket eating a cinnamon roll (from the oven) and drinking strong coffee, reading here. I am at my home...and no I'm not telling you where it is, and no, you can't come over, and NO YOU CANNOT HAVE A CINNAMON ROLL.

WLG - whatever ....scoot over!

for those that know us and that have been following our jwd love story...we cannot contain the news any longer, we have known now for over two weeks but wanted to wait until we had the last early pregnancy scan to confirm everything was ok. .

today we witnessed a miracle in the making and the ultimate in creativity - the scan confirmed a strong heartbeat and considerable growth since the last scan a fortnight ago.. we are going to be parents .

gary (db74) & dawn (sirona).
