    • I’m With You

      From denita February 16

      I always visited my mom, all the way through life however when I was with her, many times she acted as though I was not there. I always felt that I should "act" as though we had a close relationship because I believe a person should live the right way in relationship to others, even if they don't always acknowledge you. So that's what I do with everyone. I act "close" because I believe God created us for fellowship, for love, for wisdom. I just spent Valentine's Day passing out hand made "stuffed" Valentines out of red material with trim and a coupon for my sewing shop. You wouldn't believe how many people would not take one! I said, "They're free!" They were the size of a small pizza. Lots of people did take them and I passed them all out but I sure saw even more people turn away. Many good things are disappearing from people's lives because of pain and loss and rejection. That is why it takes a God who loves to love us back into life again so we can be made whole, no matter what happens around us. That's my speach for today! denita

      Hi Cros: So, you are 34. Do you live alone or what? It sounds like you didn't get to spend much "life time" time with your mom. What are you doing now? denita
