yes Eddie absolutely true..
you never know who's bleeding or bruised
this World is full of fractures and scars that many carry deep within and never expose to anyone other than God.
Those we love and have near we should all take the time to even give just a wave or smile as it might be the very thing that saves a life.
TIME
every second is precious for we can't get it back.
A moment of anger is a moment of Joy stolen never to be returned..
A moment just a moment,in a blink of an eye our lives can be gone.
So many hurting in this world Eddie and suffer in silence...
I know when I was in my darkest of despair God WAS THERE.
the separation we feel when we loose someone we love I find I feel even as I wave another goodbye to any of my children after they have visited.Our emotions and feelings are varied in different circumstances.I guess some say I love too much to feel this grief so to speak but I guess when you have been a single parent and your life has revolved for thirty plus years around your children it's hard to see them go.But the have to fly eventually as a baby bird does.
Leaves the nest.I only now in the last few years understand an older person's when they say they suffer from the empty nest syndrome.
I guess today we need to look more closely at those around and see beyond their mask of happiness and smiles for there are many that are hurting on the inside.
Gods Peace always my friend at this time in your life.
Time is precious and all we can do is do our best to restore and bridge the gaps,and when all else fails we can pray for God to intervene.
Love and Hugs Chris xoxo

hello Chrissy....I thought for a long time before I finally decided to do that message. I'm not always so good at being clear, but "cries for help" are as varied as there are people and it is as sad as anything can be to think someone cried out and no one heard....or that someone reached out and there was no one reaching back.

Life is short enough as it is. And for many it can be hard. I count myself as being undeservedly blessed by having so little trouble in my life compared to so many...most really.

and The silent ones....hmmmm....what is the answer....?????

I was one of the lucky ones Eddie as I was blessed with meeting God and knowing that so many times when it seemed my world had completely crumbled He was there to rescue me.
I recall the very first time I just wanted to take my life and my children was when I found out my Son had been a victim of sexual abuse by a Family member.I decided I just didn't want to feel such pain again and yes I had premeditated to kill myself and my children.
but praise God for He was there in my darkest hour in the middle of the night and gave to my a poem.
It literally saved my life in writing these words.

~~FRIENDS~~
A FRIENDSHIP TRUE IS SO HARD TO FIND
WITHOUT A FRIEND YOU CAN LOOSE YOUR MIND
WHEN THINGS GO WRONG YOU FEEL SO BLUE
JUST KNOWING A FRIEND WHO CARES FOR YOU
A FRIEND WHO'S TRUE CAN BE RELIED UPON
WHEN YOU'RE FEELING DOWN AND NOT SO STRONG
YOU FOLLOW LIFE'S ROAD THINK IT'S THE END
PICK UP THE PIECES YOU START OVER AGAIN
SOMETIMES IT'S SMOOTH THEN IT'S SO ROUGH
ASKING YOURSELF CAN LIFE BE SO TOUGH
THEN IT HAS IT'S UPS AND DOWNS
EVERYONE KNOWS A FRIEND TO BE FOUND
YOU BATTLE ALONG WITH SO MUCH CONFUSION
HOPING IT ALL MAYBE JUST AN ILLUSION.
THE REALITIES OF LIFE YOU CAN NOT PRETEND
WHAT A LONELY ROAD WITHOUT A FRIEND
EVERYONE NEEDS AT LEAST ONE !
~~CHRIS 1985~~


That verse Eddie saved my life and my children for God was my only friend
Gods Blessings and Protection always my friend

Oh my dear Chrissy
my older girl was abused by some one very close to us,i do know what and how you as a MOM felt/feel,and my heart goes out to you both....
I was ready to rip his heart out..not kidding..a family member stopped me,i would/could have been in jail..but i decided to forgive...however my older girl's life has been,still is an absolute mess due to that horrible horrible monster..You see my Chrissy..his brother has done the same thing too to a lady much younger then him..
That is in their evil blood and as far as I'm concerned monsters like that should NOT live but die a terrible death..They will eventualy get what they deserve by God not us..MOTHERS...............
Love and hugs to you both...

Yes we Mothers endure a lot of pain even more so when it affects our children.
My Son has come a long long way since those incidents and is doing extremely well in his life.
I encouraged my Son always and taught him that he was the VICTIM in a most horrid crime,and as he grew up I would use Derryn Hinch as a good representative and role model as he was a victim also..I didn't know any male that I could relate to other than Derryn so as he was successful and achieved a lot and walked forward rather than having that incident halt his future it helped.
It is generational Sister and I reported and bought it into the open which also helped and disassociated myself and my children from the perpetrator.
I have found that many victims or families of victims continue to have a relationship with the predator and I think that is a real slap in the face to the child victim as they feel persecuted having to face that person continually and have the family turn a blind eye.
Seen it first hand..
Yes and I do agree they are ACCOUNTABLE before God on judgement day.
You are in my prayers Sister
