I need love, I need reassurance, and I especially need friends right now. My grandfather has declined with his cancer... dramatically. I was fired from a job that I had just... fallen for... found my calling if you will... gone. Plus, to top everything off... Im sick. Please... someone convince me not to just... stop trying, give up, and again wonder why I breathe. I need help, and for once Im not afraid to ask for it.

I can hear the pain in your journal, you are hurting really bad. I can\'t answer you ina few sentences. I would highly recommend the books by Sylivia Browne especially To the Other Side and Back. She can give you answers that will lift up your soul. I know because she had that effect on me. i\'m now on her fifth book. She will give you reassurance about your life\'s path and why bad things happen to good people. What she has to say about death is particularly uplifting and will ease your worry about your grandfather\'s illness and impending passing. I also believe in the power of prayer, and even though we pary for something does not mean we are going to get it sometimes God says no. He says no because it is not in the life plan set down by you with his guidance. this may sound confusing and not much help but beelieve me the books will make a huge difference. I will remember you in my prayers.I think her webpage is www.sylviabrowne.org

These were some strong and beautiful words that really helped me. I read them and felt, \"Damn, this girl is so strong and seems like she knows what she wants.\" I want to share them with you and hope that they help you like they did me.

\" You see, theres a poster at work that everyone should see at some point in their life, and take to heart. It says \" the only way to get past a problem.. is to work through it.\" Now tell me... is that not the truth? Ive found out that you cant just ignore problems and they -poof- go away. Nope, sorry folks it doesnt work that way. Life gets hard, decisions get even harder, but all in all these are things that everyone faces. JUst some people choose to solve them one way, others become the \"victims\" of a situation. I refuse to be a victim. Join me. Join me on a path to life where you can rise above a problem, and work it out. Join me in a peaceful place within ourselves.. but most of all join me in making this world a more enjoyable place to be. CAuse let me tell ya... you wont be alive forever, hell, tomorrow is never guaranteed, so why be miserable in the time you have alive? Why not be happy in the time given to you? That way when you go, whenever that may be, you can always look back, and say I was glad I lived this long, or glad you lived the way you did.... live life without regrets, because ultimately... only the future matters. the past is already come and gone, there is nothing you can do to go back and change that, so move forward, but as you do so... smile.\"

Do they sound familiar? These are your words. You see, you do have the strength inside there somewhere. It\'s just not around when we need it the most. Just dig a little deeper and you\'ll find it. If you\'re finding it\'s too hard, drop me a line. I\'m here and so are many other wonderful and supportive people.
