Life's Arithmatic; Multiplying and Dividing ! Mood

Saturday, May 17, 2008 | A Rambling story

I just said something to a friend that reminded me why so many 'sayings' become known and repeated. It's because they are true....Simple really!! The one I was thinking of was: "When we share life experiences, the joys become multiplied and the griefs become divided." And is this not the reason DS has been such a hit with us? Donna spoke once about us all needing to be 'heard' or validated. And for many of us who were never given a voice, DS has become our place to be heard. It is safe, and loving both. I just could not imagine not being with you to share our lives and grow together in awareness and understanding !! Thanks my friends, for allowing me to share both my excitement and my concerns. Knowing from your feedback, that you do hear me and care about how I resolve my issues is my sliderule on life as I'm living it these days........This truly is just rambling, and I have a feeling there is more where it came from, so I may be back :) ..............

This is really quite profound. And you are right DS has given us the voice we have missed for so long, and the friends from around the world to share it with. And I wonder how much each of us has grown in the time that we have been here?

That's one of my mom's favorite sayings! I was at a wedding shower and asked to put a wise quote or saying on a slip of paper for the bride and groom, of course not having any of my own, I borrowed from someone wiser and that was the one I used! How cool that my OM and my M would think so much alike! I love you and hope you have a wonderful day.

I think that voice issue may have alot to do with the solution, I for one, totally agree with you.

I agree with everybody who has spoken before me.this place is like the safe haven we come to ,when life kicks us in the rear and we need someone going through the same ups and downs ,to know and understand how we feel and to empathise.
not long now ,before you meet up with some of those special friends you have made ,what a wonderful outcome!!
take care of you ,hope you have little suki sorted with his foods while u are away ,now is your time to relax and have some fun ,you deserve it my friend!much love to you all ,big hugs ,sharon xoxoxox
