Dear Lise,
 I am glad that you are learning from adversity. It is the best way to deal with adversity ,which  does  come our way, anyway.
 You sound good and that is wonderful.
 I am happy for the peace and comfort you are getting from simple pleasures. I was thinking about that ,today, as I took a bath. I had bath salts and then put on lavender cream. It smelled so good.
 I thought that this is what makes life, these small things.
 Don't be a total stranger. I can see that you pop in "when needed", as in the old days(lol). Thanks Lise .   Love   Ami

Hi Ami -- Thank you.

It has run through my mind that I am not giving much to the board these days and not offering support. But I am just allowing myself to be OK with that. I am still in a lot of pain. Some days are better than others. Sometimes we need to just open ourselves up to the love and support of others.

I am so grateful to everyone here.

I love you Ami.

Lise

Besee,

Thank you for your post, that helps.

It really IS a horror to be put to a social death in your community because of lies and slander.

But, from what I have read the person who lies, manipulates, distorts and deceives usually hangs themselves with their own lies and slander...people catch on, people get smart.

God is teaching me patience. He is teaching me that there is a season for His justice and His ways in handling dishonest people...I've done everything I could do within the bounds of integrity and principal that I could do...now, the rest is in God's hands.


God just wants me to bear my cross with strength, prayer and grace....He wants me to heal and be happy. The pain is still there.

Today I feel anger again but I can control it and stay with it without running or acting out...as well as I get under it to the raw hurt while I just ask forgiveness for those that have caused me pain...more suffering...bleh!
