You Are! You are the touch that gives a heart a sense of ease You are the breeze that whispers through the trees You are the hand that shields us from terrors sight You are the voice that speaks to souls at night You are the stars as they bejewel heavens skies You are the glow within a child's angelic eyes You are the truth that clears our souls of doubt You are the entrance and the only exit out You are the gardener our souls you tend You are our beginning and also our end You are the Father, the Spirit, and the Son You my Lord are the ONE Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Ariana, thank you, this prayer came to me in the middle of one of the worst days ever. It was night actually, but it was incredibly awful. And right in the middle of the craziness that was happening a sense of such peace and wonder hit me. It came out of nowhere, and then things suddenly calmed down. So I needed to thank HIM, and I do.

Mark my dearest friend, I thank you, and I thank HIM. It was an extrodinary night all around really. There we all were, my team and I, all plugged into the system, and every alarm in the place went off. Most disturbing, I told everyone to disconnect, and shouted don't f****** argue. Which I never do. Normally there's a logging off system which takes at most a couple of minutes, Daphnie who was closest to me, started to shut hers down and I screamed at them all DON'T LOG OFF JUST DISCONNECT NOW! We're supposed to do it in a sequence, but I grabbed Daphy's plug and yanked it out. And then all hell broke loose. And they're all looking at me going Marsha you screamed at us and you swore. YOU never do that, and it's true I don't. Anyway no one was hurt except two of the puters went bang. But the Lord only knows what would have happened if we hadn't disconnected. But someone was looking after me obviously, my guardian angel. Anyway that is where this came from. Take care Mushy Startime, thank you love I really do appreciate it.

Kit, thank you love, I do appreciate it, I really do. (But I tell you I was looking for a white feather to turn up!) I'm glad it sent some good thoughts your way. It certainly brought my attention to what I was doing. Take care Mushy Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |
