I have been with my s/o, who's wife passed away from cancer, for 9 years. Our relationship is not going well. We both have 3 kids. I have been a mother to all 6 kids. I am an addict in recovery. 2yrs clean time. I am now dealing with an 18 yr old daughter with alcoholism & a 20 yr old son that is an addict/alcoholic. I see every day that there has been a reason for my addiction. You could say it has been a blessing in disguise!

Hi, I haven't been on this site in about a year. I have one year two months sober now my life is much happier.
If I call you friend, You will always share a piece of my heart. I will always pride myself, To always be true to you. As much as I need friends, So must you. I will also share a place in your heart, To be there whenever you need me. I may not be there in flesh, But I will always be there in spirit. I will cope with your moods, And try to understand your needs. When you are angry, I will laugh with you. As sadness overwhelms you, We will cry together. If you feel down and kicked, I will pick you up and brush away your doubts. When you think you can't continue, I will remind you that you can. As you become discouraged, I will boost your ego high. At times when you wish to talk, My attention will all be yours. Being a friend I don't take lightly, It's my desire, never a chore. At times when you must mourn, I shall mourn with you. If you need some silence, yet not be alone, We will sit together in the peace of quiet. When you wish to play, You will always have a playmate. When you feel on top of the world, I'll pat your back and tell you, you deserve to be. You will never be completely alone, A piece of me will always be with you. One thing I can always give, Is the gift of friendship for you to accept. Allow our friendship to make you smile, Bring joy to your life as you have to mine. When you become confused and lose your way, Let me guide you in the right direction. Lean on me when you need support, Let me share your sorrow and pain. What good can a friend really be, If you cannot understand we will always care. If I call you friend, You will always know, A friend you have in me.
Do you believe in angels? Angels among us. Angels unaware. Angels be there my friends. They surround us each day. They live among us. They are people, plants , animals, sunshine & light. They are anything they choose to be. They fly about giving inspiration. They are that sudden warmth that fills you with love.. They whisper in your ears. They tickle your fancy. They are happiness. They are joy. They can even be sorrow. They bring your tears. They keep busy. They keep up to snuff. They bustle about. They ruffle their wings. They are in an unborn baby's kick. They are in a sick room swishing about. They care for the dieing with the comfort of soft wings. They welcome a new born with the touch of a wing. They are in a fireman's brave heart. They stand by the policeman in harm's way. They stand soldier to soldier with our troops. They blow their trumpets when there is peace. They are even with convicts. They try to show the light. They try to reach the evil. They try to makr wrong right. They cradle the unwanted. They weep with the lonely. They guide the blind. They sit by the elderly. They pay special care to the special needs people. They reside in a caring heart. They make your soul care. They make your mind think. They dance on pinheads. They talk to animals They lurk behind your smiles. They play peek a boo behind babies lashes. They bowl in the clouds during thunderstorms. They make a racket, they do. They giggle & point, as we take flight. They laugh in glee as we cover our heads . They are there in a worried parents eyes. They shine from a loving grandparents heart. They hold a scared child's hand. Trey carry your pets to heaven, when the tine comes. So no need to fear. There be angels here. Would you like a glimpse?. They show us heaven in many ways. Look in a babe's eyes. Look at the first rose in a garden. Watch a bird fly. There is heaven there. Angels see no color. Angels are in all religions. They care for us all. They do not judge. Angels know no limits. Angels cross all boundaries. They go where they are needed. They go even if not wanted. Angels bless us daily. They are bright rainbows. They are always with us. They are here , bless 'em.
