~ By Sue ~ For two long weeks I looked For a job every single day And waited for them to call But, the waiting did not pay A tunnel of darkness I travel right through With no hope in my sight No matter what I do My faith is running out With each day that goes by Trying to hang on And asking myself - why I do the things I should do Trying to get back on my feet But, there are those times I feel like I am beat The bills are piled so high With no money to pay And I am beginning to wonder Just where I will stay 3-15-03 |

Sue, things have a way of working themselves out. I'm sure in God's time all will be well with you. You are in my thoughts and prayers. |

Ooh, you brought back the very feeling of the times when I've been there. It does end, though not always in the way you expect, and as Hemingway said, you heal stronger in the broken places. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

God's light will shine and you will see it at the end of the tunnel. Hang in there and keep banging on doors. Thinking of you ... Marti Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts. A.Einstein |

Sue, I haev been there more times than is comfortable to say... you are very talented. Just remember that your Higher Being would never give you any challenges you could not work through. ~You might say I'm a Dreamer, but I'm not the only one... |

Sue, you are really being tested right now. Remember, the darkest comes before the dawn--keep yours eyes and heart open and the sun will start streaming into your life--besides, it's springtime and you have wonderful new energy coming in now! Keep the faith and you will be rewarded! Stay positive! That is very important! Warm Irish hugs, Linda |
