No love compares to

that which is self – inflicted

what I feel inside

My healing journey on the continuum of "It's all wrong" to "It's all right!" I love art and the creative process, reading, writing, and playing tennis.

        1. I know you can do whatever you put your mind to, Brad!!! Tough love has it’s place…I think I have been the deliverer and the receiver as well. Just look at it as another viewpoint. Someone told me a couple of weeks ago when I was feeling a bit down….that when she feels like that she makes a donation to her favorite charity…now I understand this…and a donation does not have to be made with money. When I was not sure what my purpose was and I was searching endlessly….the thing that ALWAYS made me feel better was if I helped someone….that help can be something as simple as a smile. I am 1200 miles from my Mom right now and she is blind…she is having difficulty working the CD player I sent her( even though I sent a detailed diagram in print she can see if she holds it directly up to her eye.) What I wouldn’t give for an angel to donate 15 minutes to help her learn to the use the machine so she can “read” her books. The only thing she ever loved to do was read.

          I know this is long…and a little convoluted…but I know your heart is good. And maybe there is something special that you are supposed to be doing. I feel like that still…and I know it’s coming. But in the mean time…help someone…anyone. It will NEVER FEEL BAD!! It will always feel good. And if you happen to come across someone who is rude…do not be discouraged. There are many who are not used to getting help from anyone so they become suspicious. Give them a big smile and move on to the next person 🙂
          I hope I have not overstepped any boundaries, Brad….I care about you…and as I said before…we have to learn certain things all by ourselves!!! Much love and peace to you on your journey!!! ❤

          1. No Lorrie, you didn’t overstep. Giving to others is great advice as is getting the focus off ourselves. I’m going to see if I can relax about all this. Take the weekend off for social things and start back next week. Hopefully a little wiser, clearer and more ready to take action.

            Sorry about your Mom. Where does she live? I would read to her. 🙂

            Thanks for caring! ❤

            1. See Brad…you don’t even have to leave your house to touch someone! You just made me cry…because I can’t think of anyone I’d like to read to my Mom more!!! She is in Florida…and I will be back there in a few weeks…so I will be able to take care of anything she needs!! Much love, friend! ❤

I had lunch with my baby (he’s a grown man but will always be my baby!) This little (big) phone does a pretty nice job with photos. ..Thank you! Hope all is great in UT’S world ❤
