Hi JAn47 ( @PeppiPatty )

Hey thanks for the compliment. you guys help keep me grounded too, but sometimes I need to back off (supposed to be cooking dinner!).

I'm sorry for your vulnerability, that can be hard to bear. But I've found it can be a surprising gift in the long term. I feel it has helped me to appreciate what matters in my life.

I just wanted to tell you that I relate to what you said about the rain and crying. A couple of years ago I went to my first spiritual direction session in many years, with someone new who I'd met very briefly once before. She asked me about my journey and I started telling her about the emotional abuse I'd experienced at the church I was at in Melb for 10 years. I was crying - it started raining outside (not softly nor a downpour) and I had the strongest sense that God was crying with me. I hope this helps.

Take care friend 🙂

Cheers,

Kristin

Hiya kristin,

Been out for most of the day and came home to find 20+ "LIKES" of my posts, from you.  How nice. Thankyou.

Kristin, some time ago I tried to create a collective voice, as you put it. I got some dissatisfied people (Carers) together and made some loud noises. 

I lead the cavelry with my sabre held high and yelled "CHARGE" but when I looked back no one was following me. I was all on my own.

I must have touched a nerve though because I was warned, in no uncertain terms, to back off, by some very powerful people.  It's part of the reason (not the only one), that I ran away.

I am very tired but do think I have a bit of life left in me though. Finding people who will work with you and stick with you through thick and thin however, is very difficult.  When the going gets tough, the faint hearted run for cover.

What about you?

Gray

[PeppiPatty]

Depends who.
But on the whole yes.

[Gray]

I just looked at your picture with the baloon and all.

Is that what you really look like?

If yes, then I think you are beautiful.

Hello @Gray, @Loopy and @justanother47yr!
Sounds as though we are all starting our weekend on fun! Loved the Xmas pics posted @Loopy..and @Gray..keep charging! Sometimes I think of Monty Python's Holy Grail and the Knights of Nii..never give in and never give up as squaky wheels always get the grease in the end..
