1)Please continue to share your resources & links via this blog. I believe the Holy Spirit will work through us to help each other. This is one way. Thank you, J-M for your thoughtfulness in this regard.

2)One of my life motto’s is “always believe the best in others.” I always presume the best about another’s motives. I believe all of you use this forum for growth & encouragement. I don’t think anyone is using this for selfish gain.

3)What interesting conversation about “The Real Me?” I think I’ll blog about it.

We never heard anything back from Angie… as of yet that is…lol

I had a suggestion, regarding possibly all of us doing something together, developing a blog in TEAM spirit here in this blog…lol

The bottom line is: That we all care… and we all could work through this little blog glip…lessening the tensions…lol

In doing so, perhaps we all could become more introduced, building & developing relations, or simply just with a more unified TEAM spirit. Just an idea…lol

And, of course, it depends on Angie and her volunteer work with Dallas Life. Perhaps, we could all do something with them in helping their cause in the homeless shelters.

Maybe, as a blog TEAM we could help by donating cash, house-hold items or food items to the homeless shelters at Dallas Life.

Some of us here in the blog, are too far away, to maybe ship items, or personally stop by their offices. However, maybe others would like to donate something…by a pay-pal or a donate button.

And I know, I have things in my food cupboards and other storage sheds that I could donate items and possibly ship over…Maybe, others would do the same.

It depends on Angie and Dallas life…Is this a good idea?

Maybe, lets hear and talk to Angie more? Or to possible look into some details on their website or even here in the blog with a pay-pal donate button and with their office shipping terms & address. Thinking as a TEAM unit.

Any thoughts?

But Rose, what goes on in the mind is the same as saying it or posting it.

Not posting rotten thoughts, not swearing to keep from being “banished” from a blog does not remove the thought. HE knows your “words” even if not spoken. And for others it just gets said or posted hurtfully and you feel it ok perhaps as you do not get banished, but many perhaps like I look for positive messages and lessons here, not exchanges as you and I now are pulled into and must now be posted.

This is Angie’s blog and topic and she has often suggested emailing to her rather than posting outside thoughts. I do not wish these conversations and I pray you will find a way to answer the questions of the Blog author and not turn this into Facebook. You had a problem back on OC when someone had a hard time in English and I said it was fine as I would translate whatever on-line. You lambasted the poor person and I was shocked at your vileness.

Rose you must know how “hearts” sink when they see you have posted! Mostly it will just be boosting your meeting the Schullers or that you already knew the story posted by Donna or whomever. You hurt people and I can only hope you find a way to care and that you find some positives in every day and let your past family hurts not live on through you.

With HIS blessings

I have a friend who is now in permanent longterm care after a stroke and he is active on these sites or links trying to maintain that part of his generous personality.

I honestly regret that Rose, you have difficulty understanding others efforts or ways of answering these blogs or perhaps expressing your concerns in a way which is not read offensively which you recognize by prefixing often that you “do not wish to be rude, but…” We have all seen your struggles and negative words on all the blogs and though I know you often write, (sic) “how I do not care how people read or in my life are angry with me”, I hope and pray you will find this is an opportunity to make friends and share good thoughts. As Cyrasdill wisely suggested, obviously do not go to the links if you do not think they will add to your understanding of my point. I have no financial interest in any of the link sites. I simply use them as my way to do some of the Christian efforts that are growing in our cyber world and they are great I think. Yes, I have had problems as you point out, Rose, and so I guess being glued to a chair much of the time leads me to internet ways to try to “Authenticate my Faith” in activities that I used to do in the “real” world but now do on-line and I am loving it!

I hope this answers any concerns and I truly appreciated the kind words Cyrasdill and Al. I am feeling better for your words.

HE Blesses us all

Great to hear about the act of kindness in your volunteering activities. I think those things are great! I researched your volunteer listings.

You share a lot of yourself in these blogs, I greatly appreciate and admire that…I really enjoyed the Canada video that you shared during the Olympics.

How their act of kindness was just providing a hot cup of coffee or chocolate. It means a lot to people…little things adding up to be great big things.

Keep up the great volunteer work…

I dont know the group very well…But, was wondering if any-one would share their professional expertise or jobs? Angie, what was it like working with Dallas life…Are you making deliveries with them or working more in the homeless shelters? Tell us more…

Great blog…

Al
