a sign of life
yes, Virginia, I am still alive & kickin'! . . . I've been under *SOMEKIND* of stress for the past month & a half, and the road is still before me. But, I've come out of my "shell" a bit the past two days with the help of prayer and have realized that I have WONDERFUL friends & family around me who are such a strong support & invaluable sounding board. so, i'm trying hard to return to & maintain "life as usual", and I am getting reinforcement everyday that with the Lord's help I will be able to do this. one day, my life will be "as usual" again . . . I never thought "life as usual" would be such a welcome change! so, I leave you with one word: faith. It preceeds the miracle, it can move mountains, and sometimes, it is ALL we have. even in our darkest moments, don't forget that Heavenly Father loves us, cares so deeply for us, and never, never leaves us. In this I have faith. And, it is my prayer that this faith removes all of your worries and fears too. Have a wonderful day . . . enjoy all of the blessings in your life . . . recognize them and savor them . . . the Lord is so good.

Thanks so much for your very sweet post. I've been thinking about you and I'm happy that you're coming out "of your shell". It's so easy to go inside of the shell and hard to come out...that's why snails and turtles and other sea creatures love their shells- easy to stay inside, be safe and warm and hidden from everything. However, we do need our friends and family and of course, our heavenly father...without it, we will become dry and shriveled!
Love you!
So good to "see" you again! You know that I am always here for you. Talk to you soon.
Hey Girlie,

With a lot changing in my life, too (as you know), I've been having some emotional issues. I seem to have mostly pulled out of my doldrums lately by doing what you advise here - remember the blessings and the good things. There is so much that I genuinely enjoy, appreciate, and consider myself lucky for. Which life circumstances you're thinking of makes all the difference in the world.
Oops, that was me - Amy from Gauche Alchemy... I was setting up a blog for my friend today! Ack! Better log out!
