alanback:Finally a familiar name here, Ramadan!  May God's blessing be upon us in this holy month.

In the US, today is Rosh Hashanah and tomorrow is the first day of Ramadan!  Blessings to all in this holy season.

toddioprod:It is like a breath of fresh air to read this post of yours. I was involved in a religion...which will remain nameless.....which had no tolerance for the points of view of others in other religions. In the end my experience in this religion took on cultlike attributes. I am now out of it but experience bouts of lonliness and other things attributable to those having left a REAL cult. Thanks for your post. It was read by me at the most important time: NOW. Made me feel so much better. Thanks, again!

Go out to Dolittles hubby for a speedy recovery.
and to UzzyLady

Groucho: Your Welcome

Thanks for agreeing to help out  :)

I have just heard on the news about the gunman shooting randomly in a college in Montreal, my thoughts and prayers are with the students and families

Groucho: He doesn't play as much as he used to but that's about all he can do...has a lot of pain.

Let us never forget those who lost their lives on 9-11..also all our brave service men that lost their lives fighting for our freedom!!

my thoughts and prayers go out to all the famliys who lost there loved ones 5 years ago

bouncybouncy: Many a heavy heart today were attending a mass that our church has every year.

Dolittle:  I'll play more games with jrhardhead.  Is he able to play right now?  I'll pray for healing for him too.  

bouncybouncy: 

My thoughts and prayers go ou to all the people who lost their lives and the families who lost their loves ones on this very sad day.

Please say a prayer for jrhardhead, he is a member here and is very ill. He also could use some more games if anyone is interested in playing backgammon or Ludo! Know he would appreciate it!

My thoughts go out to all those that suffered 5 years ago.

Dolittle: thank you Dolittle

Groucho: Its so very hard , i really do feel for you and your family and Chris's family. The fact he wasnt wearing a seatbelt, makes it harder to take in. I have bookmarked your brothers website, and will look at it tomorrow if thats ok. Going to bed now have a 6.15am start tomorrow.

Take care sweetheart.

Groucho: That is so very tragic at such a tender age, my thoughts are with you

Intensive care. They are not sure if she has had a stroke or heart attack after an op on her neck.

Please say a prayer.

Thoughts and prayers for a a former student of mine who tragically died yesterday in a car accident.  Great kid and super family.  Being a small town they are known by many.  The staff is devistated.  He was 22.  Name Chris.  Thanks

Nirvana: Yes it is a lovely idea. Thanks

Gentlegiant101:  Don't let your fear of religion keep you from experiencing your spirituality.  God bless you!

I was at a twelve step meeting tonight for the first time in a long time. Laziness was not the reason for my prolonged absence! But irregardless of the reason I was at the meeting and it closed with the Lord's/Disciples' prayer! Whenever I hear that prayer,because I don't hear it often, I'm reminded of how unforgiving I am.....even tonight as an EX Christian! Being an EX Christian doesn't allow me the right to be unforgiving or to forgive when not an ounce of energy is needed. Furthermore, I was amazed at how much stress it took to be forever unforgiving. I feel as if a load has been taken off of my shoulders by dropping all of the grudges as a result of multiple hurts leading up to 2002 and beyond.
"Forgive us our temptations....as we forgive those who trespass against us.
Reminds me of the marraige vow "To have and to cherish in sickness and health....But what happens when the sickness comes?...as in what happens when it takes energy to forgive? I quit religion for health reasons. But now that I see how brainwashed I was and how cultlike the religious experience was like at the end I am leery of going back into it too intensely and becoming brainwashed again. I am not against religion. I just have a personal fear of it.

I just changed my Name here from Radiant Aunt in: RoseOfSharon

Ask me about it offline, ok :-) Thank you!

Groucho: You are very welcome!! I have had no idea of you being in hospital... :-( Since its about a week later: how are you doing now and what is 'packing'?

God bless you real good and may He heal you completely!!! amen

srnity:

As today is the day of my birth and you can't be with me, I want to send you both ALL my Love & ALL my Thanks, for if it were not for the union of two such wonderful people once upon a time, I would not be me.....I LOVE YOU BOTH for all eternity.....Thank You Always for making me, raising me, and loving me...I feel very blessed for having known you...

Radiant Aunt:  thanks for askin!!!! 

Radiant Aunt:  It's been a week and the last few days have been rough.  Hard to explain but there is currently little drainage due to the packing and so it's like having the flu.  I see the doc tomorrow and as I understand it, they will remove the packing and that should help a lot with the pain. ;)

Groucho: Have been away for a while. How are you doing? How did the surgery go?
