A vdry deep, soul searching thoughts of the pain you still endure. Still you cry out to God for an answer to ease your breaking heart. But no comfort that I feel you have received, other than survival detours that still leave you questioning. Put those questions to rest for there will be no direct answer but an open awareness of your own life style may be seen and redirected to find some joy and happiness in the present, for it is what it is.

When I wrote one of my poems for a contest (Which I cannot share info on), I made comments in the notes that were especially meant for someone like you. I lost my father many years ago to suicide, and just like you write in this piece - so many questions and no real answers. It was especially difficult, because my father was an alcoholic and throughout my life he lived here and he live there. The longing for him as a little girl and young woman was tremendous. The time I was able to spend with him meant so much to my heart; so when he committed suicide, I was so very angry at first. But thankfully the power of forgiveness help to ease that pain. xoxo

    As I suffered through my recent alteration at my surgeon's office today from a catheterization to puncturing me here and there thank God that I'm better off than most people.
    ...
    star babies right now crying cuz they're starving all over the world. My
    * 60000 human beings in my state New Jersey that will go to sleep with aching valleys tonight.
    There are other numerous people who are suffering so in hospitals awaiting human organ the form of Gift of Life.
    ...
    We wonder if they were born in progress or educated if this is the way the world was meant to be?
    But then again let's not forget the so so much Beauty?
    ...
    The beautiful summer lilies as they droop in the rain when droplets of fresh water is if do is what remains.
    ...
    many beautiful dragonflies and insects that fly in the sky zigging and zagging trying to catch themselves a little gnat or two before the sun sleeps as it will always do.
    ...
    And then back again there's me and you my love.
    Though we may suffer to a limited degree it's just another form of God testing you and me.
    To strengthen us and then he again lets us on our way.
    To teach others to try and enjoy and have another beautiful day.

    So beautiful and magical and the wisest of advice! If only all of us could see with such unselfish eyes. Thank you writing this! One day maybe I will be able to share this with my sister. She once wrote poetry herself :).

Excellent
Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted

One thing Scarlett NEVER did was let anything get her down - "After all, tomorrow is another day!" :). Nicely done and thank you very much for sharing it.
