The real meaning of enlightenment is to gaze with undimmed eyes on all darknesses. ~ Kazantzakis After a phase of darkness light is sure to return, and it is even brighter than it was before.

I join sparrow in appreciation of the quote. thank you so much for posting those words. 
 
I also am so glad Sandra is off the swing for a little bit.  I suppose maybe we need something to put up at night for her at least to be sleeping.  I worry about her being on the swing all night
 
Sending love to our dear Sandra who is doing so well walking through all of this with consciousness, right action and  open eyes.  I am sending love to you all !!

Dear Sandra
I still am lighting candles for you. I am proud of you for your strength.  But sometimes no matter how strong we are, we need lots of people praying and lighting candles to remind us of just how loved we really are.  I am sending love to you ............. because you are wonderful.  love, liliwings

Hello Gratefulness
 
I am very sorry I thought I had put a post in
here a few days ago but it's not here now.
 
Thank you for your kind words,endless prayers
and candles in both groups plus others .
 
James is well thank God and is looking forward
to going back to school next week.He has
been free from seizures since he stopped the
last medication.He is now being weaned off
another medication and so far his fits are
under control.
 
 
His Mummy managed (for the first time ever)
to have two night's break from little
James during the last few weeks as 
his big sister offered to have him for a sleep
over and he was more than delighted to go
with her.
 
I wish I could have him here but Yvonne is
unable to 'let him go' just incase he has a
seizure with me.My neice has grown up with
James's seizures and Yvonne feels unable
right now to hand him over to anyone other
than his sister .
 
 
I would like to share this story with you all.
 
Two weeks ago I was out for the day with
little James and his Mummy.We had a lovely
time and we found a nice little tea shop to have lunch
in.We ordered our food and of
course James needed to go to the  loo just as
lunch  cameso off he went with his Mummy
whilst I munched away!!
 
 
After lunch we gathered up all our things and
as James got down off his chair  a white
feather floated off his lap onto the table.
My sister and I looked at each other and then
she reminded me of the time James was in
hospital after he was born ,when his Granny
picked him up he was clutching a baby white
feather in his little hand.
 
We both know James is indeed been watched over by many angels ...
 
Here is the feather  from the tea shop... 

 

 
Thank you for the extra prayers for me too.
It was been a hard few weeks but I am
determined to turn my life around and please
God I will in time.
 
Thank you again ,love mexxxx

Sandra, I'm pretty new to the forum. I'm lighting a candle for Mary and a candle for James tonight along with a prayer that he stays well. My prayers go out to all of you.

Thank you Ladies,
 
Every time someone close to me dies it is very bittersweet.Bitter because obviously it is very
sad and sweet because my Darling Son  this week will have two more special people  to hold and cuddle him .
 
Bless you all lots ,Sandra xx

R.I.P All who have gone before us..
 
 
 
They are not dead,
Who leave us this great heritage of remembering joy.

They still live in our hearts,
In the happiness we knew, in the dreams we shared.

They still breathe,
In the lingering fragrance,windblown, from their favourite flowers.

They still smile in the moonlight’s silver,
And laugh in the sunlight’s sparking gold.

They still speak in the echoes of the words we’ve heard them say again and again.

They still move,
In the rhythm of waving grasses, in the dance of the tossing branches.

They are not dead;
Their memory is warm in our hearts, comfort in our sorrow.

They are not apart from us, but part of us,

For love is eternal,
And those we love shall be with us throughout all eternity.
