Well sis, one more time you come through. This time you spoke of life in the nitty-gritty. You've just reminded us so eloquently that we have all had twists and turns that have brought both joy and sorrow. You're so eloquently affirmed God as our heavenly father who is looking out for his children. We certainly don't understand everything in life and why things turn out the way they do but God is good all the time!

    I just love you to pieces and I am sorry that it is so long between our visits, dear brother, you are never far from my thoughts. Thanks for all the lovely comments, and just as soon as I get caught up a little, we need to catch up a little. As you can see, the third of us is back and with us for another year. YAY! One of these days, I must find out if she is the oldest. Lol..... thanks for the six stars and for all of your awesome comments. And just so you know, I always have your back, dear bro. I am praying for you and hope things will soon be better w all you have going on.
    I will give you my email, and feel free to email me anytime.
    It may take me a while to get back, but then again, I may forget for a bit that I am almost 300 thank you's behind. ... They will get done, when they get done!! Thanks again, sweet bro!

    Well sis, you are absolutely most welcome for the stars in the reviews and the comments that I make about your work. The truth is I only say what I believe. I too am behind on things so I'm not gonna say a lot of the words in the next two responses after this one. I want you to absolutely know that you owe me nothing including speedy responses that say thanks for saying something nice L. O. L.

    I AM TAKING A COURSE ON AI IN WRITING AND I AM JUST NOT ABLE TO GET TO FAN STORY LIKE I WOULD LIKE TO. I KNOW I DON'T HAVE TO APOLOGIZE EVERY SINGLE TIME I GET ON FAN STORY.

    I really wasn't shouting! I inadvertently pushed the caps lock. I just don't have time to go back and rewrite it. I would like to say a few things possibly through email sometime. God bless you goodbye for now and the next two responses will be extremely generic.

    Hey little bro (I miss saying that to someone since Denny was killed in a blizzard a few years ago) Thanks for helping me to realize how much saying those couple little words mean to me.
    And no need to apologize. Cause when you come back, you always come bearing such nice gifts. Lol! Love ya!!

Thanks, Debi, for a little peek into your philosophy of life. "We can't appreciate the white, if we don't see the black" is a great line. Good use of the "...ack" rhyme.

This is a lovely emotional poem Debi where you have shared yourself with us. When reading your notes about your mum I thought how much we come to realise and respect our mother's as we progress through life. A beautiful presentation, thanks for sharing.
Cheers
Valda

It is full of nice sentiments but tbh I just cant get behind the constant love fest seen so often by the writer. It all feels a bit high school clique.
Some things are precious and not constant grist for the mill.

Just as an added note, I am.sorry for your troubles but we all have a past. Keep the faith.

Your words are filled with such honesty and understanding, compassion for your self and others, strength and acceptance and that quality is what makes them flow so smoothly. Thank you for writing of your life, for sharing of yourself, and for inspiring all of us Fanstory writers. Well done!

    Glinda, I thank you you so much. When I see you wonderful friends, continuously being there for each other, it is hard to hold the tears back. I thank God every day for sending you all to me. I can't think of more fulfillment in this life than what he rewards us with daily here. Thank you for being one of those great rewards, my dear friend.

Oh, yes -- you can lean on me, Debi, my friend -- PM me for my private info, yes?

Your poem is wonderful -- all of it -- but it is this line that is my favorite because it is exactly what survivors need to do (like us...):

"I will not dwell on times that weren't as blessed as they are now..."

I agree with you here:
- kindness is essential when giving feedback and elsewhere in life.
- life isn't perfect for anybody.
Thanks for sharing your lovely poem, Debi.

It sounds like you've been through some terrible times...I'm sorry for that. How wonderful though, that you've found faith and hope in life and you remain strong. I enjoyed reading the positive message in your well written poem, thank you for sharing.
