I have been gone alot as of lately....I have experienced some personal hardships....I am still grieving over the loss of my Mother.... I want all of my friends who have PM'd me...emailed me...prayed and thought of me and my family to know that I am feeling the love.... Each of you are a blessing to me...I have a great pain in my heart BUT my head is beginning to see a distant light...I believe that I have support from around the world...and I want all of you to know that I appreciate the care and concern that I have received from so many of you.. I FEEL THE LOVE....I hope that you all feel it returned to you as well..... Tina

Rest assured, my friend...I knew that you would be...I do not begrudge your visit to the kids house...I am so glad that you were able to go... I had no warning and I guess, that in itself is a blessing...she did not suffer... I mourn Mom's loss....but not her life....she was happy here... I feel you and did before you returned...some people touch your heart and are there to stay...you are one of those to me, my dear friend....I feel so lucky to have you and others similar to you here for me....

Tina, I am still sharing the burden of your pain and loss. I have been praying for you and your FIL constantly, and I still do. God has brought us all into your presence to touch you, to help comfort and uplift you in prayer and in spirit, no matter where we are in the world. We have blessed each other through our sharing, and I thank God for that. Victor

Victor, my friend, I feel your presence...I know that you are near and I draw strength from that knowledge... Some people that we come in contact with...seem to touch us in a special way...a bond is formed..without expectations or reason...we share that bond, my special friend... I think often of you and your lovely wife...I am honored to have you as a part of my life, Victor...I am very thankful too...

Hi there my friend, I am so glad you didn't just stay away, I have a friend here on MyLot, that is going through almost the same, but it is now almost three months that he is absent and I miss his company very much. So I am glad to see you back here, how ever difficult it must be. You mentioned that you feel the love, and it reminded me of the Elton john song 'Can You Feel the Love Tonight' I am putting the lyrics here it is a very powerful song. There's a calm surrender To the rush of day When the heat of the rolling world Can be turned away An enchanted moment And it sees me through It's enough for this restless warrior Just to be with you And can you feel the love tonight? It is where we are It's enough for wide eyed wanderer That we got this far And can you feel the love tonight How it's laid to rest It's enough to make kings and vagabonds Believe the very best There's a time for ev'ryone If they only learn That the twisting kaleidoscope Moves us all in turn There's a rhyme and reason To the wild outdoors When the heart of this star-crossed voyager Beats in time with yours And can you feel the love tonight? It is where we are It's enough for this wide-eyed wanderer That we got this far And can you feel the love tonight How it's laid to rest? It's enough to make kings and vagabonds Believe the very best It's enough to make kings and vagabonds Believe the very best

Thanks, Annie...you are right...Elton John summed up alot of things in this song....it is lovely... I appreciate you writing it all out for me...I have heard the song but have never felt the lyrics until tonight, my friend... While it is extrememly difficult simetimes...I value the friends that I have made here and have gained moments of strength from many of you.... I can always count on you to say what I need to hear the most, my friend...xoxoxo

Feelin' it, my friend. You hang in there. Give that sweet little boy of yours an extra hug anytime the hurting gets too bad. He probably needs it as bad as you do. Take care.

We are here for each other...he sleeps right next to me every night...my husband says that many times when he gets up during the night...we are laying facing each other with his face and mine touching...he laughs about it wondering how we can breathe.... I gave him a hug from his Auntie Carol....he and I are extremly close and he knows many of ya'll by name...he even can pick out the avtars of many of my special friends here.... Yes, my dear friend....I can actually feel the presence of many of you reaching out to lean a shoulder, hand and part of your hearts to me....I won't ever forget those who rallied for my sanity and peace of mind....like you!!

You're very welcome. The way you highlighted but and not heart I thought you meant you had great pain in your butt. Was going to recommend some Preperation H or something along those lines. Now if you have a "drippy" nose I'm lost there. Good to see you back and remember that mom is always with you in your caring heart. My moms been gone for many years yet I still grieve the loss every major holiday as those times were special with her driving 150 miles just to be with me and my family. Keep her in your heart & she is never really gone. (grabbing kleenex now) HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

I am glad you can feel the love we are sending you. I do wish I could be there in person to give you a hug. I only wish I knew about mylot when I lost some of my loved ones,I truly believe the love and prayers of stranger/friends from all over the world helps the heart. To know that people who may not really know you can feel so strongly for your own heartache. I know it will not be easy or soon but you will get through this even though you never wanted to have to.
