many need to start from scratch and discover things about themselves and learn about how to make good decisions versus being told what to do or asking an elder.

Hi (((((LadyLee)))

In my recovery I like working with visuals. Interesting putting the pieces of the puzzle together sometimes I think it fits. The piece is not quite right. Having to seek out another piece.

Life is a puzzle?

Thank you

Pat Garza Tribute from Silentlambs

by qwerty in

pat garza was a victim of sexual abuse and had lived in abject fear for many years.

however, there was a radical change in her perspective on life during her last months.

her death in june after battling with cancer was a source of grief to those who knew her.

Thank you qwerty for posting.

I was touched receiving this in my e-mail from SilentLambs. To acknowledge her as a person.

She is a hero in my eyes. After the encounter with her and the SilentLambs March. I gave her a rose quartz stone for her to carry in her pocket. She was in alot of pain at the time. Little did I know she was going to be on the platform at the WT headquarters and share her story. Very empowering to watch her move the pain in speaking out. I won't ever forget her.

There was a couple that was her support from the West Coast. They had taken a picture of me and her. She wanted a picture of the Stone Lady. If there are others on this site who knew the couple or are friends on this site. I would like a negative ? This may be a shot in the dark. Worth a try.

Dear Estee

My thoughts are with you and to acknowledge how deeply the pain is indescribable losing a connection with a child and to follow their lifes path.

I wished I had a magic wand to dispel and relieve the pain. What I can do is offer you a rocking chair and a of tea to comfort you and I sit quietly in the room with you. To allow 's to wash your soul.

To let you know as a Mother myself. I was not invited to attend my daughters wedding. It was a very difficult time. So what I did to take care of myself was treat myself a week-end away and spend the time on Lake Superior. For being near water is a comfort for me.

I support you in taking care of yourself surrounding this time. In what ever way it fits for you.

Let you know I am open to PM.

All the Best, Kathi

Will you ever meet God or Jesus?

by freedom96 in

i know this is bound to open up a lot of topics here, especially those who want to make clear their opinion that god does not exist.. that being said, this is for those who do believe in god.. .

do you believe in a heaven, and if so, when you get there, in your opinion, will you ever personally walk up to god or jesus and talk to them face to face?.

as i left the witnesses, i have gotten a better understanding of the bible, and my personal belief is that we do have a heavenly hope.

oldcrowwoman

I don't think so!!!!
