    It’s hard to save change when we have credit cards.  But some times we will have cash hand on hand and yes, we save our change.  As a matter of fact we just cashed in some change (about $100) not too long ago.  Pennies add up!! 😉

    Oh, sissy @grecy095, I hope by this time you got payment?   I hate that when that happens when you or others don’t get paid on a site that is suppose to pay you doesn’t!!  I also don’t  like it when the site’s owner or staff don’t respond to you.  I guess we just take our chances when we work on-line.

    Taken Too Soon

     

    Death is inevitable

    But we can put our memories in a time capsule

    Of the loved ones who were taken too soon

    • I know in time I will able to understand but taking her dear life is something that I can’t accept. I know what’s going on with her were something she could handle any more. I know she is hiding something that only her knows. It is painful and I am not sure if I can able to handle this one too. I hope her family will be tough for each other.

    • We have to accept this reality. No one is spared for this eventuality. If he does, he would be still experiencing this even a wink of an eye. This had happened to some Bible important persons like Moses, Enoch, and the rest who have not died for they are translated by the Lord.

      Death is one of the three realities in life. The first is birth, second, living, and last is death. Not counting the spiritual point of view which is the resurrection.

    • Thanks for sharing this beautiful and touching post.
      It is hard to accept that a dear friend’s passing but time would heal the pain.

      Your hubby had been very kind to talk the guy out but when someone has the intention to commit suicide, you can see the symptoms , look to his Facebook.

      There were several cases in our country where young teens and adults took their lives without a good reason.

      Fed up with their lives, guilty of something done, feeling lonely, rejected by someone or even study pressure.

      Most of these cases you see the symptoms, the victims would type in their last Goodbye at Facebook.

      Yes, you may feel the hunch that your friend had that kind of thoughts, that is when he needed more support, only his family members could stay 24 hrs per day with him.

      So, you are not at fault, you had done your best.

      Amen to your friend.

    • Life is a gift from God, and no one has the right to take away their own life. But some people find it much easier to end their lives so that they can put an end to their miserable lies. That’s not the best option that someone would take, suicide is not the answer. It is painful enough to see someone die because of illness,but suiside? You will never get through that pain easily. There will always be that question in your mouth what happened, or where did I go wrong, all this things cloud your mind and sometimes you may find that your blaming yourself for things that you don’t understand. So death is inevitable but let it come naturally don’t force it life is a gift treat it well.

    • Suicide is a bad thing and those who commit suicide are cowards not bold or clever. Those who cannot face time hardships and find noway to escape make suicide anon.

      In other words that Severe depression is always accompanied by a pervasive sense of suffering as well as the belief that escape from it is hopeless. The pain of existence often becomes too much for severely depressed people to bear.

      I asked you to tell me why you think people contemplate suicide and you had some amazing insights. It is clear that it is usually not just one thing that compels someone to feel suicidal. You said it is a combination of a lot of things, including:
      pain
      loneliness
      rejection
      abuse
      deep depression
      guilt
      depression
      helplessness
      hopelessness

      I believe first and foremost, hopelessness is a serious spiritual problem rooted in lies and faulty thinking. Anytime you believe lies about yourself, you are listening to the wrong voices.

    • I am wondering what kind of garden you are raising. In a time of natural calamities, your garden survive. Why is it survived? Because God has protected it, because of your unwavering faith of God’s greatest love and mercy. It is the faith that makes everything possible.

      Believe it or not with that kind of faith, coupled with a prayer of faith, it is for sure you will be having a garden of Eden figuratively speaking.

    I think in every site I’ve been on writing, I’ve always shared about one favorite teacher that I had.  Even though I can’t draw, my Art teacher was my favorite.  Art was the first class.  She was a bubbly person that always was smiling and in a good mood.  She would always greet us with a “Good morning!”

    I think some times our lives get so hectic and we become overwhelmed.  We have every minute of the day full of things to do.  Sometimes we can be so overwhelmed we need a way to “re-group” so we can focus on things again and to become less stressed.  I know people who do yoga or meditation as therapy to get them energized and focused.

    @grecy095, oh definitely it probably does affect your relationships.  I think that is why I was attracted to alcoholics, they were abusive.  I was even attracted to men that were 10 years older, looking for a “father” figure.  It’s hard to get over, when you’re around abuse, because you think that is “normal.” 🙁

    • I feel sad for reading this and I am sorry what had happened to you. I wouldn’t have guessed that as you sounds so positive now. You must have gone through a lot and you are doing great to make the change and not continue to live in the darkness.

      According to the sleeping problem your husband has, I think you just can’t help it when you snore. My husband told me I snore when I am very tired as well. I think it’s just normal. I think there will still be a way to solve it. Is it possible if he put on ear plugs, so he will not be disturbed? Let him know that it’s not what you want, and see how you can solve it together with him, so both of you can sleep well, and you don’t feel bad too.

      Hope you realize that it’s not your fault, it’s not your problem, it’s nothing wrong with you at all! Hope I can give you a hug, hope the little girl inside of you get healed soon. Love her and embrace her! 🙂

    • A good communication, a constant communication would solve the problem of misunderstanding. At home, we have a family gathering and we meet together with my wife and with our children. We call it as Family Home Evening. We start it with a prayer, then singing of the Church hymn. We proceed with a perk up games among us. Then my wife would give a spiritual message and I will follow it up by citing the actual or the realities. This is where I discuss the problem of our family, the concern of our children, and we note them well for resolution. It won’t take long than an hour. After that, we have a snack for everyone to partake. So we have no miscommunication. We lead our family according to the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
