~BLESSINGS~

"BLESSINGS CAN BE A LOVING SMILE,

OR EVEN A SOFT TENDER TOUCH,

A KIND WORD SOFTLY SPOKEN.

THESE BLESSINGS MEAN SO MUCH!

 

BLESSINGS ARE A SPECIAL FRIEND,

BEING THERE IN TIME OF NEED,

LENDING A HAND AND ENCOURAGEMENT,

BY DOING A LOVING DEED!

 

BLESSINGS ARE WHEN SOMONE CARES,

WHEN OUR LIVES SEEM TO BE ADRIFT.

BLESSINGS ARE HEARING A PRAYER,

THAT GIVES OUR LIVES A LIFT.

 

BLESSINGS ARE KNOWING OUR GOD IS NEAR,

OUR EVERY PRAYER HE WILL HEAR!

GIVING US COMFORT, INSTEAD OF FEAR,

TRUSTING HIM WITH ALL WE HOLD DEAR"

What Has Death Made You?  / Babygirl
I found this article & it sure hit the nail on the head - so true!




The answer to this question ... what has this made you? Simple.

there are NO guarantees. You should live life to the fullest every day.
If you love someone, tell them. If you are mad at someone, forgive
them. Don't think 'oh I'll do that tomorrow" cause there may be none.

I absolutely believe that death changes you, forever changes you.

I find that I am more caring and compassionate toward strangers in
general.. I tend to think to myself.. maybe this person is going
through something tough in their life right now.. I try to give people
the benefit of the doubt.. I have no use for petty squabbles or issues
that are blown out of proportion.

unless someone died.. it does NOT qualify as a catastrophe in my book.

I try much harder not to jump to judgment of how or why people do
things. While I feel I have always been a compassionate person, I
don't have time or space for those who are toxic and believe it is much
easier for me to separate from that.

There were certain friends and family that were there for me and I will
NEVER forget that.

Now I am someone different.

I am making decisions that don't necessarily make my old friends and
family happy. I like being alone now.

I am angry sometimes. I say what is on my mind most of the time. I
change my mind all the time. I don't always keep my appointments. I
might say I will go somewhere, and then at the last minute I just cant.
I am confused! The back of my head feels like it is numb. Most
importantly, I don't follow the pack anymore. I do what I want and
what I need at that minute.

I will not let ANYONE tell me HOW to feel or what I should be doing or
who I should confide in. Maybe I am being selfish, but it's who I am
now.

Maybe someday I will find a way to combine who I was before and who I
am now - but to be honest - I think the person I was died with you.
Paul Newman said that his life is measured by before and after his son
died. This is so true for me.

I have to believe the biggest change has been that I have NO tolerance
for petty BS. I used to listen to people sit and bitch and moan about
their problems and even then they seemed so small. Now small petty
things are absolutely miniscule and I have no tolerance or patience for
any petty griping.

I recently have started to realize that I have to do whatever it takes
to get through the day. Sometimes my decisions tick other people
off....I never would have done that before, but now I could care less.

I find myself gravitating towards those who know how I feel...i.e.
other grieving people.

I have always lived for the moment and now even more so. I travel if I
want to travel, I sit in my bed and cry if I want to. I do whatever it
takes to get through the day.

Now I feel lost and very alone.

I never cried before, now I cry easily. I am disappointed in others as
I know they are in me. I too make decisions on what I think is best for
me and don't care what others think. Selfish maybe? Huh But I will
never let anyone influence any decision I make again. I also like to be
alone and spend a lot of time alone.

I have a really difficult time listening to others talk about their
spouse good and bad. That's hard for me.

It is ALL hard for me, I don't like this journey and wish I could just
get off this path all together. It never seems to get easier.

I now have a very low tolerance for shallow, self-centered people,
especially those who are dismissive of our pain and lack of progress
that fits their timetable. I find it hard to make friends, or maintain
friendships, as they seem to demand far too much than I am able to give.

Isolated

I am finding myself wondering why no matter what I do to adapt to this
new person, to move myself forward and find my way, any progress is
short-lived, and turns out to be just another diversion from the pain
and emptiness that is always there. It is a cycle that has repeated
itself for 3 years now, and leads to the question, "Is that all there
is???"

I've pretty much isolated myself from everyone (unless I have to put on
"the face"). There just are times that I don't want to do this
anymore. I'm not the same person I was before and to be honest, I
don't know if I can ever come close to being her again.

Oh well, life goes on even though there's a gaping hole in my heart.

I was a hard- working, compassionate, appreciative person *before*.

For a long time it was hard to feel compassion for anyone else at all.
It was hard to care, I was so buried in grief.

I estimate in terms of self, in 3 years, I have made about an 65%
recovery. The rest of the damage, I'm staring to understand, is
probably permanent. In a lot of ways, I feel like a stroke victim. I
continue to work on appreciating my life despite the damage. Like a
chronic illness, I work around it, and try not to let it define my
life, or undermine enjoyment of what I have left.

It has made me angry, bitter and mad at the world. I have great
sympathy and tend to gravitate towards other grieving people. I have no
patience for petty whining. I cant stand to listen to people gripe and
complain about how horrible their lives are. Those who stepped in to
help me stay alive I cherish and keep extremely close.
I don't care about too much really...my kids, my friends and family.
the rest really doesn't matter anymore.

I used to be very out-going, now I am in a shell.
I realize now that things that seemed important before no longer do.
It is like living a hollow existence now.
I have trouble hearing about or seeing other couples.
I am lost and alone most of the time.
I am not at all the same person as I used to be.
Everything has changed, and I just want him back.

While I am a compassionate person by nature, I am also a no BS person
now. I don't have time for the trivial things that people make a big
deal out of. I don't have time for foolishness and ignorance angers me.

I used to be very driven and a person who lived on edge all the time -
driven by deadlines... I am much more laid back than I ever was. Life
is too short and too precious to ignore the subtle. I have learned
that life isn't all about who has the most toys. The most important
things in life are right in front of you. Family & those friends who
were there.

It is hard for me to get really close to people and I don't have best
friends that I spend time with.

I have become very private. I cherish my privacy now.

My life changed in an instant and I still don't know what it is
changing into.

Am I more compassionate, I think so in certain circumstances. It's a
confusing journey. I sometimes wonder if I just don't care anymore.

I have changed completely. Some things for the better, some for the
worse. I tend to think a lot more now. I reflect on things, I look at
people differently. I feel a bond with other people who grieve - even
if I have never met them - more then anyone else.

Joy is much harder to come by. The things that used to make me happy
are just things now. I think about him every day, all day. People
look at me and they don't see the same me anymore.

I believe that losing him has not made me better or worse. I am just a
different person.

My life was forever changed the day I lost him.

Since he has died I have raged, cried, hurt myself, wanted to die,
hated everyone and everything, felt sorry for myself, been angry at
everyone, and it sometimes continues, although I don't want it to.

In most ways, I find myself being more compassionate and tolerant but
still very forthright with my opinion and not real tolerant of people
who have a choice to do something different.

Anyway, I don't really know who I am without him, but I want to be
better.

I am more reserved, reluctant & hesitant, something that i was not
before.

I am cautious to speak & voice my opinion, I listen more now , because
I really have nothing to contribute to a conversation.

I sense when someone is sincere and when someone is not.

I have noticed that some people worry & talk about a lot of
insignificant things in life.

What has this made me?? very confused, uncomfortable, itchy in my own
skin, painfully aware that there are no second chances.

NEVER FORGOTTON KENNY.  / Joan Taylor

Happy Valentine's Day!  / Wm. Scott &. Samantha Myers

 

my prayers are with you  / Teri (passerby)
He sounds like a very GREAT man and you were lucky to have the time thatyou did with him God has a plan for us all and though we may not understand it will be oh so clear in the end,  MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU

You are not alone  / Melissa Hedge (Passing Through )

Renee, Sometimes the pain of loosing someone you love makes you forget that you are not alone. Thank you so much for lighting a candle on my Dad's site. It brought tears to my eyes to see that other people really do care, And that I am not alone. You and your family are in my thoughts and Prayers may God Bless you all. Melissa Daughter of Angel Paul W. Thomas

When tomorrow starts without me,
And I'm not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
all filled with tears for me.

I wish so much you wouldn't cry
The way you did today,
While thinking of the many things,
We didn't get to say.

I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you,
and each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too.

But when tomorrow starts without me,
Please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name,
And took me by the hand,
and said my place was ready,
In heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind
All those I dearly love.

But as I turned to walk away,
A tear fell from my eye
For all my life, I'd always thought,
I didn't want to die.

I had so much to live for,
So much left yet to do,
It seemed almost impossible,
That I was leaving you.

I thought of all the yesterdays
The good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the love we shared,
and all the fun we had.

If I could re-live yesterday
Just even for a while,
I'd say good-bye and kiss you
And maybe see you smile.

But then I fully realized,
That this could never be,
For emptiness and memories,
would take the place of me.

And when I thought of worldly things,
I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did,
My heart was filled with sorrow.

But when I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home
When God looked down and smiled at me,
From His great golden throne.

He said, "This is eternity,
And all I've promised you."
Today your life on earth is past,
But here life starts anew.

I promise no tomorrow,
But today will always last,
And since each day's the same way
There's no longing for the past.

You have been so faithful,
So trusting and so true.
Though there were times
You did some things
You knew you shouldn't do.

But you have been forgiven
And now at last you're free.
So won't you come and take my hand
And share my life with me?

So when tomorrow starts without me,
Don't think we're far apart,
For every time you think of me,
I'm right here, in your heart.


Tonight / Your Babygirl (Fiance)


TONIGHT

I remember the times we spent together
All those drives, we had a million questions
All about our lives
And when we got to Dallas everything felt right
I wish you were here with me,
Tonight

I remember the days we spent together,
were not enough, it used to feel like dreaming
Except we always woke up,
Never thought not having you here now
Would hurt so much

Tonight I've fallen and I can't get up
I need your loving hands to come and pick me up
And every night I miss you
I can just look up
And know the stars are
Holding you, holding you, holding you
Tonight

I remember the time you told me
About when you were eight
And all those things you said that night
That just couldn't wait
I remember the car you were last seen in
And the games we would play
All the times we spilled our coffees
And stayed out way too late

I remember the time you sat and told me
About your Jesus, and how not to look back
Even if no one believes us
When it hurts so bad, sometimes
Not having you here

Tonight I've fallen and I can't get up
I need your loving hands to come and pick me up
And every night I miss you
I can just look up
And know the stars are
Holding you, holding you, holding you
Tonight

I say
Tonight I've fallen and I can't get up
I need your loving hands to come and pick me up
And every night I miss you
I can just look up
And know the stars are
Holding you, holding you, holding you
Tonight

REMEMBER ME ALWAYS  / Pat Mom To ^j^ Sandra Oshunkentan (^j^ Friend )
 
To the living, I am gone.
To the sorrowful, I will never return.
To the angry, I was cheated.
To the happy, I am at peace.
To the faithful, I have never left.
I cannot speak, but I can listen.
I cannot be seen but I can be heard.
So as you look in awe at a mighty forest and its grand majesty,
Remember me.
Remember me in your heart, your thoughts, and your memories.
Of the times we cried, the times we fought, and the times we laughed.
For if you always think of me, I will never have gone.
