Life
Wow, what a ride coming home has been. I thank God everyday for the time I spent in the desert because it made me strong enough to deal with life …
The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings, but shorter tempers; wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints; we spend more, but have less; we buy more, but enjoy it less. We have bigger houses and smaller families; more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees, but less sense; more knowledge, but less judgment; more experts, but less solutions; more medicine, but less wellness. We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often. We’ve learned how to make a living, but not a life; we’ve added years to life, not life to years. We’ve been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbor. We’ve conquered outer space, but not inner space; we’ve cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul; we’ve split the atom, but not our prejudice. We have higher incomes, but lower morals; we’ve become long on quantity, but short on quality. These are the times of tall men, and short character; steep profits, and shallow relationships. These are the times of world peace, but domestic warfare; more leisure, but less fun; more kinds of food, but less nutrition. These are days of two incomes, but more divorce; of fancier houses, but broken homes. It is a time when there is much in the show window and nothing in the stockroom; a time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to forward this message and make a difference… or just ignore it. The message is this: "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."

I am a christian who is faithfully following Jesus. He has seen me through some very dark years and waited patiently for me to come humbled at his feet. I love to read anything and everything. I also love to do crafts and most importantly spend time with my daughter. "The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you." I want to be a Living Example of the Living Truth!!!!

I am writing this to say "Happy Birthday to Me"!! I will be 41 tomorrow and feel extremely blessed at the moment. God has allowed me …
As many of you know, I am traveling back home to my ancestors. I am writing to be in the right to be covered in the natural covering of our Lord …
Oh my gosh Bonnie! It's great to finally have a word from you. It sounds as if things are going well for you. And for that I am happy. As far as Alaina goes, all our children must at one time or another try and spread their wings even though we know it might not be the in their best interest. Hoping it all works out according to God's will. Please keep letting everyone know how you are. I leave you with God's blessings... Love, Georgia

I have used cocaine since the age of 17. I am now 40 and have been clean for 5 years now.
Just recently diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. I am glad I finally have a name for all this madness going on in my body. I think the worst part is the "fibrofog" and the tiredness.
I have recently been diagnosed with RA in my hips and spine. This stuff is painful.
I am 5'4 and weigh 182. I have lost 15lbs. Would love to be back to my normal weight of 130. Help anyone
I have been an alcoholic/addict since I was 17yo. I am 39 with four years clean.
Im overweight about 50lbs and would love to lose it but I cant do it by myself.
Im in the middle of depression episode. I have to wait for two weeks to get meds. Its crazy.
I have a 9yo daughter. She is my beautiful ray of light when she wants to be. Lately, that has been a different story.
Went to see the doctor today and my blood pressure is through the roof 140/112!!!! BAD!
I have alot of friends who are still out there.
I have been familiar with death from a very early age. I have lost my loved ones from cancer, suicide and heart disease.
OMG! I didnt know they had this community. I cant budget my money to say my patooty!! It burns a whole in my wallet. It screams "Spend me, spend me!"
Have endured both over the years. No longer in that relationship.
I was just diagnosed with Psoriatic Arthritis.
Didnt really have alot of impending symptoms to warrant an emergency operation to remove my gallbladder and 2 stones.
I have had this painful condition for many, many years without relief.
Had my car repossessed. Had to change our eating habits, buying store brands instead of name brands. Staying home instead of traveling. Packing lunches during the week instead of eating out. Being conscious of everything from usage of water, to how much electricity is used. Its rough!
Moved back home after 6 years and daughter decided living with dad would be better. She has since found out its not!
