Have not been on for many months, and just dropped in quickly to say Hello dear people. A year of joy and sadness, and the unbelievable honor of participation in bringing in new life...and holding the hands of those departing this one. When I was last on here, I was trying to find a way to help out with gas for transportation for a mother with a sick child, and sadly was unable to contribute due to the circumstances that life put into my immediate way. To her and all of my fellow aidpager's I send prayers for moments of indescribable joy amongst the daily grind we all face. If we open our hearts to the warmth of the sun, or the warmth of a hug...then whatever life throws at us can be met with strength and determination to go on. I pray all our hearts remain open, that if life is hardening those hearts some small joy will create a miracle--that may not solve the dilemna being faced--but give you a smile that cracks the shell being built around your heart. We can not always direct what life throws in our paths, but we can determine how we are to meet it...and I pray we all continue to meet it with open arms...as much to say "you can try to take me out but I won't go quietly or crying but rather with my full and undivided heart"...The world may crumble around me, but the I of me will not be destroyed.
Much Love, ksoulsak
