yesterday was a terrible day.
Umby thank you for your kind words.
You are my friend now and after.

Umby i give you permission to never blame yourself again
None of this your fault.

this is not an attack upon the rc.
it is an example of the sheer volume of work they are dealing with and the scope of events they have dealt with.. i went to the rc support place here in wa.
it seemed that many people (staff) were dropping out from this place due to illness, holiday's ..family ....and so on.
Yes totally agree
Yes, privacy is VITAL throughout these proceedings....
Stay strong!

She is so upset and confused. The arrogant wind is not blowing her sails. She is wondering without being aware of her own doubt.
Haaaaaaa... that cracked me up!!!!!
I really believe some jws are reaching the ...WTF moment?
is this a beautiful story, or what?.
act one________.
now in an ordinary romance of the golden hollywood era, the boy goes off to war while the young lady waits nervously for his safe return.in a cary grant, debra kerr movie, the two vow to meet after a certain period of time and tragic circumstances intervene.. in my story, the young man is a conscientious objector who goes to prison instead of off to the vietnam war.
I have been waiting for your reply...didn't relies you posted here.
Wow Terry that is beautiful to here.
I am so happy for you!
Yes on Sunday I too met a lovely like minded person.
So refreshing when you connect with someone in so many ways.
I can't lie, this 3-hour visit did more to heal me than I can possibly explain here.
That is exactly how I felt.
Little did I relies the healing went both ways.

Sorry for the bad news in jest.
my husband asked me a questions that kind of stumped me for a moment.
he asked, in genesis, when cain killed abel, and god, as punishment cursed him and drove him from the land, making him a restless wanderer, why did cain say to god that the punishment was too hard; that anyone who found him would kill him?
who was going to kill him?
Yes I agree 100% with this comment...
It just doesn't make sense!!!!!
I have asked why god would bother repeating himself on this topic..............
now I begin to wonder about the entire book
Me too!!
we have nothing to fear but fear itself is a famous line uttered by franklin delano roosevelt during one of the usas most uncertain and scary time periods during the height of ww2..
fear can immobilize a person, make them afraid to help others in times of critical need.
fearfulness can change a persons personality forcing them to act in ways that they wouldnt otherwise.
the terrorists get 77 virgins in paradise wheras the victims only get a panda and a table full of vegetables.
just sayin'
77 virgins ..hmmmmm
Male or Female
just wondering...
