About Me
THIS PAST YEAR I HAVE BECOME A BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN, WAS BAPTIZED ON AUGUST 12TH 2007. AND PROUD OF IT. IT IS NOW GOING ON THREE YEARS SINCE I HAVE BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH FIBROMYALGIA, I AM HOPING THIS WILL BE THAT MAGICAL YEAR I HAVE BEEN PRAYING FOR REMISSION OF THIS HORRIBLE AILMENT AND I JUST DON'T KNOW IF MY FAITH IS STRONG ENOUGH YET, AND THE KEYWORD IS YET. TO ACCEPT THAT MY LORD WILL TAKE THIS THORN AWAY. BUT AS MY FAITH GETS STRONGER I MAY WAKE UP ONE MORNING AND BE FREE FROM IT. I LOVE IT BEING HERE AT DS, HAVE MET THE GREATEST OF FRIENDS AND I HOPE TO BE HERE FOREVER MORE. TRISH

  From urloved Yesterday
  
  Your presence is a present to the world. You're unique and one of a kind. Your life can be what you want it to be. Take the days just one at a time. Count your blessings not your troubles. You'll make it through whatever comes along. Within you are so many answers. Understand, have courage, be strong. Don't put limits on yourself. So many dreams are waiting to be realized. Decisions are too important to leave to chance. Reach for your peak, your goal and your prize. Nothing wastes more energy than worrying. The longer one carries a problem the heavier it gets. Don't take things too seriously. Live a life of serenity, not a life of regrets. Remember that a little love goes a long way. Remember that a lot...goes forever. Remember that friendship is a wise investment. Life's treasures are people...together. Realize that it's never too late. Do ordinary things in an extraordinary way. Have health, hope and happiness. Take the time to wish upon a star. And don't ever forget... For even a day... How very special you are. Love, Teresa
