  poor tink had to be rushed to the hospital early this morning 2:00am.

  she went to bed fine but after several hours of pain and discomfort it got so bad she woke me up.

  she had severe chest pain and pain in the center of her shoulder blades.

  IF YOU COULD TELL A JW OFF, WHAT WOULD YOU SAY?

  by minimus in

  after reading all the sad stories of how some here have been abused in a multitude of ways, if you had the opportunity now, would you speak up?

  if you tended to be shy or insecure, would you want to speak out now, if you could?

  I really think that the only thing they'd listen to is " Get the HELL off of my property!!!! "

  Dishonourable to NOT attack terrorism - NYFD

  by Celtic in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my opinion on america's war on terrorism is changing these past few days or so, so much so, that now i would see it as negating our responsibilities if we did not act against terrorism at it's root.

  considering the 9/11 attacks just for now.

  here we have, within a very small comparatively speaking, airliner, - with completely opposing polarities of thought dimension on board, (love and hate).

  A terrorist cannot be rehabilitated. I AM a peaceful person, yet I want the terrorists killed. They have no respect for life or rights - even of their own religion and people.

  We owe it to the up and coming generations to stop them, period.

  hugs, Mimilly

  They won't. They'll see it as proof that the big A is around the corner. Just like on that day - they will be cold and callous about it.

  In memory of all those we lost

  In memory of all those left behind to mourn

  In memory of all the effort and good accomplished

  In memory of the soldiers who went overseas

  In memory of the families they left behind

  In memory of the soldiers brought back to be buried

  In memory of those wounded and maimed

  In memory of those emotionally scarred

  In memory of the old reality

  In memory of that day.... one year ago... today.

  Be safe. Remember that when people help people, the power of good grows.

  Lest We Forget........

  I had just gotten up, came downstairs to find my girls watching tv. I thought it was a movie and they told me it was the news - and to watch. The first tower had already been hit. I watched in horror as the second tower, the pentagon, flight 93.

  Then news of all the diverted flights came and requests for homes and blood. We offered our home and made appointments to donate.

  Then weeks of hoping for survivors that never came. I finally curled up in a ball and sobbed for hours.

  Today, all my candles are lit with words for each group. As I turned on the tv, the names were being read at ground zero. It came back. I know I'm going to break again. Every name - a family - and friends. Such incredible loss.

  I thought I would go out and do things today, but I'm with Lilacs. I will, with all the countries, join over the tv with my memories and grief. I wish I weren't alone. My girls are working. I will call mom and tell her I love her. And I will call my girls, and tell them how much I love them.

  I will never forget. Love to all of you.

  I had gotten out of bed, came downstairs to find my daughters watching the tv. At first I thought it was a movie. Then they told me it was the news, and to watch. The first tower had already been hit. I saw the second tower hit, then news of the Pentagon and then flight 93.

  I was numb and like a deer caught in the headlights. (to use other poster's apt descriptions) Shock, anger, numbness. The three of us sat together on the couch, silent, and glued to the tv.

  Then news of the flights being diverted here came. Requests for homes, blood. We called and put our home on the list and made appointments to donate blood.

  Then the hope for survivors. Eventually I broke down, curled up and sobbed for hours.

  I still shake my head. My heart still aches. And I'll never forget. It's too much to absorb. I'll be lighting candles tomorrow/today as well.
